  • "Breaking Bad" star Bryan Cranston shared a video of his transformation into drug kingpin Walter White on Twitter Monday. 
  • Cranston, who had a brief cameo in "El Camino," the "Breaking Bad" spin-off film that premiered on Netflix this month, had to wear a bald cap and special makeup for the scene. 
  • The time-lapse video shows the actor getting fitted with the bald cap as well as a fake moustache. 
  • Cranston had a full head of hair at the time due to his role as anchorman Howard Beale in the Broadway adaptation of "Network," and only had 36 hours to film the cameo.
