Bryan Cranston has revealed that initially turned down a role in Godzilla.
Cranston is back on the big screen this week, as he leads an all star cast in the Gareth Edwards directed film.
However, Cranston says he realised that he had been a 'fool' and got aboard the highly anticipated blockbuster project.
Speaking to the Press Association, the actor said: "I wanted to do something different. I didn't want to do something that can be compared to Breaking Bad.
"At first I turned the role down because I didn't think Godzilla would be the best thing for me to do. I think I was a little snobbish, to be honest with you.
"The writing in Breaking Bad was so superb and I wanted something to match that, but I thought, 'What a fool. Maybe I'll never find anything to match that.
"So (I should) do something in a completely different genre but still have a very strong, compelling character-driven arcs."
Godzilla marks the first time that Cranston has worked with director Edwards: this is his second film after making his debut with Monsters.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen, Ken Watanabe, Sally Hawkins, Juliette Binoche and David Strathairn are also on board.
Godzilla is released 15th May.
