Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan recently revealed the fate of Saul Goodman's personal bodyguard, Huell Babineaux.

"Yes, sadly he’s waiting morosely on that sofa, looking like a lost puppy… [Laughs] No. It’s likely that Agent Van Oster keeps in touch with DEA headquarters. So when he learns Gomez and Hank have gone missing, he would in short order tell his superiors what they were up to. Within a matter of hours, really not that many in story time, Huell will be taken back to HQ. They’ll question him, find out what he knows — which isn’t much — and he’ll be let out on the street. Right now, he’s doing what Huell does best, whatever that is. He’s out and about as a free man."

According to the official Breaking Bad book (via Uproxx ), here's Gilligan's response to 'Is Huell still waiting for someone to come back for him?'Thankfully, it sounds like things worked out for the big fella. We can only hope Jesse shared a similar fate.Being one of Goodman's henchmen, it's possible we'll see Huell (played by Lavell Crawford) show up again in the Breaking Bad spinoff, Better Call Saul, which is expected to air its second season in 2016.
