Welcome to Saul's world, Walt and Jesse.

For five seasons, Better Call Saul methodically teased out the complex backstory of Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk). In the show's sixth and final season, which starts airing April 18, we may finally understand the full, complicated picture of the good-ish-guy-turned-bad-ish-guy lawyer we first met on Breaking Bad.

A number of Breaking Bad characters have already made appearances in the show's prequel, but Breaking Bad's two biggest stars hadn't shown up. That finally changes with the show's co-creator Peter Gould confirming Saturday that Walter White (Bryan Cranston) and Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) are coming back, Variety reports.

Gould shared the news at a PaleyFest LA during a panel about the AMC show. According to Variety, Gould said: "I don’t want to spoil things for the audience, but I will say the first question we had when we started the show was, ‘Are we gonna see Walt and Jesse on the show?’ Instead of evading, I’ll just say yeah."

Better Call Saul Season 6 debuts April 18 on AMC.
