The Walking Dead Had Not One But Two Better Call Saul Stars
Turns out Steven Ogg isn't the only Better Call Saul star who was in The Walking Dead.
Better Call Saul had an absolute killer cast — from leading to supporting actors. Some of them were already famous from Breaking Bad, and others have rocked it on different TV shows.
You might be surprised to know that two actors from Better Call Saul took part in The Walking Dead, another popular TV show that has spawned numerous spinoffs.
Let's break it down.
Steven Ogg
First one is the most obvious one. Steven Ogg gained widespread recognition for his portrayal of Trevor Philips, the crazy and unpredictable character from the video game Grand Theft Auto V.
However, his talents extended beyond gaming when he joined the cast of Better Call Saul in its first season.
In the Breaking Bad prequel, Ogg took on the role of Sobchak, who was considered for hire as a bodyguard for Daniel and who eventually got beaten up by Mike.
Although Sobchak's appearances were brief, Ogg's intense screen presence left a lasting impression.
But it was on The Walking Dead that Ogg truly made his mark. In the show's sixth season, he was cast as Simon, one of Negan's most trusted lieutenants.
Ogg's portrayal of Simon perfectly captured the character's sadistic nature, blending charisma and menace in a way that left viewers simultaneously captivated and terrified.
Kerry Condon
This one might be a big surprise for many of you. In Better Call Saul, Kerry Condon played the role of Stacey Ehrmantraut, the widow of Mike Ehrmantraut's son.
As Stacey's character developed, Condon did a great job in portraying a grieving wife.
Surprisingly enough, in The Walking Dead she also portrayed a woman who lost her husband. If you watched TWD, you could easily forget her as she appeared only in a bunch of episodes.
In The Walking Dead, Condon took on the role of Clara, a woman struggling to survive in the harsh reality of the apocalypse after her husband's death.
Clara appeared in the episode 30 Days Without An Accident, and in the same episode she commits suicide. She is later seen in some other episodes as a walker.
