Better Call Saul Season 6 Star Says Kim Has a God Complex
Better Call Saul star, Rhea Seehorn, discusses Kim Wexler’s ever-evolving God complex in the show’s sixth and final season. Developed by Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould, the Breaking Bad prequel follows Bob Odenkirk’s Jimmy McGill before he became Saul Goodman, the attorney who would represent Walter White, a.k.a. “Heisenberg.” As Jimmy struggles to resist his scam artist tendencies, Better Call Saul explores the effect he has on those around him. This includes fellow attorney, love interest, and recent bride, Kim Wexler.

So much so, that there appeared to be a shift in Kim’s character as she suggested a nefarious way to take down Howard Hamlin in the season 5 finale. As fans prepare for Better Call Saul season 6, Seehorn is here to explain how Kim hasn’t changed.
