Production for the third season of the critically-acclaimed "Breaking Bad" spinoff series, "Better Call Saul," has officially begun, and it looks like fans are going to get another good look at Jimmy's (Bob Odenkirk) post-"Breaking Bad" self, Gene.

Yesterday, Entertainment Weekly featured a few first-look snapshots from the production of the third season of "Better Call Saul," and the first few photos showed Jimmy's reinvented self Gene. A low-key cinnabon worker with a fuzzy little moustache, Gene is the personality Jimmy takes after "Breaking Bad" forces him to take apart his sleazy, criminal lawyer persona, Saul Goodman. "Better Call Saul" viewers get to see Gene in a few flashforward scenes during the first two seasons of the series, and based on the newly released photos, it looks like they'll see him again in season 3.

In the last photo presented by Entertainment Weekly, Jimmy is seen together with his brother Chuck (Michael McKean) in his tin-foil covered home. During the final episode of season 2, Chuck decided to betray his brother by recording Jimmy's admission to tampering with the case documents for Mesa Verde. It looks like fans are going to see the two in another confrontation when season 3 of "Better Call Saul" makes its way to AMC.

Meanwhile, in other "Better Call Saul" news, series creator Vince Gilligan finally explains in an interview with Yahoo! TV why it's been taking the series so long to show the transformation of Jimmy into the slick criminal lawyer from "Breaking Bad," Saul.

It seems like Gilligan and his co-creator Gould have always had the metamorphosis of Saul in mind, however, things changed when they continued writing the series.

"I thought, maybe worse case, we'll wait until the end of Season 1, but then we'll see him, and the show will really kick in. Then, lo and behold, I came to realize the show had already kicked in, and Jimmy is more interesting, to me, than Saul is. In fact, when he becomes Saul, it's going to be a tragedy, it's going to be a sad thing," Gilligan said.

"Better Call Saul" is set to return with season 3 in spring 2017 on AMC.
