Before getting his Breaking Bad role, Giancarlo Esposito was at such a low point he considered hiring a hitman to kill him.
Giancarlo Esposito became a major star thanks to his role as Gus Fring in Breaking Bad – but in a dark confession, he admits to nearly ending his own life prior, just before Breaking Bad delivered the opportunity he'd been waiting for.
"The first thing that had me think there was a way out, was my wife's father – God rest his soul – Pops McManigal was in insurance," Esposito explained."So I asked , I started poking around, 'How much am I insured for?' And then she told me. My way out in my brain was, I said, 'Hey, do you get life insurance, if someone commits suicide, do they get the bread?' And my wife said, 'Well, that's kind of tricky.
So, as you can see, Giancarlo Esposito was not just playing Gus Fring in Breaking Bad – Gus Fring was just an extension of Giancarlo Esposito!
