One World Symphony announced that it is working on a Breaking Bad opera that will premiere in January 2014.

Director of the orchestra, Sung Hin Jong, revealed his plans to work on a "mini-opera" based on the show:

"A week after the series finale of Breaking Bad, I have decided to compose Breaking Bad - Ozymandias (2014), a mini-opera based on the award-winning drama and Percy Bysshe Shelley's sonnet for One World Symphony's Addiction program."

Fans started imagining how the show will manifest itself in an operatic tenor and the main question seemed to be how and if Jesse Pinkman's favorite expletive ("b****"), which punctuated most of his lines on the show, would be translated.

Would there be a "B**** Aria?"

Jong addressed the queries by confirming that "The B**** Aria" would definitely feature in the adaptation. He defined the nature of the aria on the Symphony's official website:

" 'Chemistry: it is the study of change,' Walter White taught his high school students. Like all main characters in Breaking Bad, the role of Jesse Pinkman, who would sing the "Bitch Aria," undergoes transformation. As a high school drop-out, Jesse Pinkman could have been easily dismissed, but as the narrative slowly unfolded, he developed into a complex character who might be considered the moral center of the drama.

"His relationship with Walt led him to make self-destructive choices time after time that spiraled out of control, but he was compassionate and caring. In contrast to Walt's ambitions of building an empire, Jesse's dream was carpentry, which brought him peace and hope.

Jong added that the "B**** Aria" would "embrace the character who's morally torn, literally pulled in numerous directions and ripped apart. The aria alone has the potential to explore Jesse's tortured soul and battered body."

The opera will perform on Jan. 26 and 27.
