[laughs] Oh my-
MarkHOST
Like, "How dare you ruin Walter's dream-
IsabelHOST
I met him when he was only 14 years old, when he was cast as Walter White, Jr., a part he played with such joy and enthusiasm.
IsabelHOST
Born with cerebral palsy, he never, ever allowed that challenge to be an excuse for anything." Bryan continued, "He met the demanding shooting schedule head-on with great determination, always listening to the advice that his TV parents, Anna Gunn and myself, gave him, but being a teenager, sometimes mischievously ignoring the counsel in order to learn the hard way.
IsabelHOST
He was one of the stars of a hit TV show, but still a kid." Bryan added, "We were texting each other just a few weeks ago, figuring out when we could meet for lunch.
IsabelHOST
I don't know if that lunch would have changed his future, but I do know that I loved him and thoroughly enjoyed being with him throughout the years and after the spotlight on Breaking Bad dimmed.

While most teenagers were worrying about homework, friendships, and whether somebody liked their Instagram picture, RJ was working alongside some of the most talented performers in television.

Cameron LouisHOST
Mm-hmm
RaveyHOST
... like, Bryan Cranston and Anna Gunn and Vince Gilligan still just trying to digest it.
Cameron LouisHOST
Yeah.
RaveyHOST
Uh, Mitte always super complimentary of, uh, Cranston and Gunn, saying that they were able to keep the Breaking Bad set pretty light-
Sharon BialyGUEST
He was not a mature actor, but he was smart enough to know to take direction and to bounce off his fellow castmates.
Sharon BialyGUEST
Look, when you work opposite roles, Bryan Cranston and Anna Gunn, you are going to pick up on that honesty in front of the camera and not lie.
Sharon BialyGUEST
They taught him so much over time.
James KamarasamyHOST
He, of course, used his profile as well, didn't he, to educate, to be someone who advocated for people with disabilities.

Jack O'BrienHOST
Yeah
KleinHOST
I was like, the voice and the way he walks and everything, it's unbelievable.
AllyHOST
Well, and I don't even think he was much of an actor at the beginning because, you know, when Bryan Cranston was talking about him, he said that, you know, Anna Gunn and him were kind of like his show parents and also his teachers kind of giving him pointers on how to act, and by the end, he was a very accomplished actor.
AllyHOST
But if you watch the beginning of that series, he does seem a little bit awkward.
AllyHOST
It seems like he's first time on the camera, and it is.
KleinHOST
I was like, uh, y- the voice and the way he walks and everything, it's un- unbelievable.
AllyHOST
Well, and I don't even think he was much of an actor at the beginning because, you know, when Bryan Cranston was talking about him, he said that, you know, Anna Gunn and him were kind of like his s- show parents and also his teachers kind of giving him pointers on how to act, and by the end, he was a very accomplished actor.
