Bob Odenkirk on Wild Card ( (NPR))

A note from Wild Card host Rachel Martin: You know when you think you’ve got someone pegged in a certain way, and then they surprise you. They reinvent themselves, they pivot. I love that. And I’m pretty sure Bob Odenkirk is someone who enjoys breaking other people’s expectations.

At his core, Odenkirk is a sketch comedy guy who wrote for SNL and later made “Mr. Show with Bob and David” in the 1990s. Later came a pivot to dramatic acting with “Breaking Bad” and “Better Call Saul.” Now, Bob Odenkirk is a bona fide action hero and I’m here for all of it.

His latest contribution to the action genre is in the new movie “Normal.”
