While many fans of AMC's hit TV series Breaking Bad eagerly await the return of its final installment, its proposed Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) spinoff has just gotten the green light.

BB creator Vince Gilligan has reportedly stated that the project set to revolve around the crooked lawyer character is now going at full speed ahead and is in development.

According to The Wrap, Gilligan addressed the obvious questions surrounding the highly anticipated program on July 2.

"Those are the two big questions we ask ourselves - is it a half hour or an hour, is it a prequel or a sequel? But having said that, I have to be coy as to whether it even could be a sequel. Because you never know, when the dust settles at the end of our final eight episodes, where everybody's gonna be and who's gonna be left standing. I can't even say for sure that it could be a sequel. It may be, it may not," he said.

The Huffington Post reported that Gilligan is hard at work on the spinoff with Peter Gould, the writer who created the Saul Goodman character.

AMC's Breaking Bad is set to return for the second half of Season 5 on Sunday, Aug. 11. Be sure to keep checking back for more of the latest details on the show and its spinoff.
