The character was originally conceived as dying at the end of the first season, but as the show's producers grew more impressed by Paul's performance and his chemistry with <a href="/people/300/000130907/">Bryan Cranston</a>, the plotline was reconceived with Pinkman surviving. Still, even after his character's life was spared, Paul says Cranston and others on the set would frequently approach him with comments like, "I'm not going to say anything but it was such a pleasure working with you."<p> His other work includes a recurring role on HBO's <i>Big Love</i>, and a small part as <a href="/people/791/000022725/">Tom Cruise</a>'s brother-in-law in <i>Mission: Impossible III</i>. He also appeared in the music video for <a href="/music/024/000035916/">Korn</a>'s "Thoughtless", and in TV commercials for Juicy Fruit gum, Kellogg's Corn Pops, Pepsi, and Pizza Hut. Paul has said that prior to his success on <i>Breaking Bad</i>, he frequently snuck into the Los Angeles theater where <a href="/tv/764/000049617/">Jimmy Kimmel Live</a> is taped, and loitered in the green room playing pool and drinking from the show's backstage open bar.<p><b>Father:</b> Robert Sturtevant (Baptist minister)<br><b>Mother:</b> Darla Sturtevant<br><b>Girlfriend:</b> Jessica Lowndes (ex-)<br><b>Wife:</b> Lauren Parsekian (non-profit executive, m. 26-May-2013)<br><p> High School: Centennial High School, Boise, Idaho (1996)<br><p> <a href="/honors/534/000044402/">Emmy</a> 2010, Best Supporting Actor for <i>Breaking Bad</i><br> <a href="/company/126/000116775/">Universal Studios</a> Usher (1996-97)<br> <p> <font size=-2 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">TELEVISION</font><br> <a href="/tv/922/000400719/">BoJack Horseman</a> Todd Chavez (voice, 2014-)<br> <a href="/tv/017/000205399/">Breaking Bad</a> Jesse Pinkman (2008-13)<br> <a href="/tv/628/000115283/">Big Love</a> Scott Quittman (2007-11)<br><p> <font size=-2 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">FILMOGRAPHY AS ACTOR</font><br> <a href="/films/685/000404470/">American Woman (9-Sep-2018)</a> <br> <a href="/films/251/000406030/">The 9th Life of Louis Drax (1-Sep-2016)</a> <br> <a href="/films/688/000405470/">Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV (9-Jul-2016)</a> <font size=-2 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">[VOICE]</font><br> <a href="/films/511/000402302/">Central Intelligence (10-Jun-2016)</a> <br> <a href="/films/134/000400928/">Triple 9 (19-Feb-2016)</a> <br> <a href="/films/581/000405363/">Fathers & Daughters (1-Oct-2015)</a> <br> <a href="/films/048/000404830/">Eye in the Sky (11-Sep-2015)</a> <br> <a href="/films/533/000387369/">Exodus: Gods and Kings (3-Dec-2014)</a> <br> <a href="/films/652/000380509/">Need for Speed (7-Mar-2014)</a> <br> <a href="/films/574/000383422/">A Long Way Down (10-Feb-2014)</a> <br> <a href="/films/221/000382072/">Hellion (17-Jan-2014)</a> <br> <a href="/films/680/000387516/">Decoding Annie Parker (4-Apr-2013)</a> <br> <a href="/films/989/000358912/">Smashed (22-Jan-2012)</a> <br> <a href="/films/299/000379159/">Wreckage (2010)</a> <br> <a href="/films/169/000203557/">The Last House on the Left (13-Mar-2009)</a> <br> <a href="/films/102/000276271/">Daydreamer (Jan-2007)</a> <br> <a href="/films/419/000116071/">Mission: Impossible III (3-May-2006)</a> · Rick<br> <a href="/films/104/000269294/">Choking Man (Apr-2006)</a> <br> <a href="/films/343/000093064/">Bad Girls From Valley High (13-May-2004)</a> · Jonathan Wharton<br> <a href="/films/400/000091127/">Kingpin (2-Feb-2003)</a> <br> <a href="/films/208/000041085/">Van Wilder (4-Apr-2002)</a> <br> <a href="/films/464/000160981/">Wasted (17-Mar-2002)</a> <br> <a href="/films/747/000032651/">K-PAX (22-Oct-2001)</a> · Michael Powell<br> <a href="/films/965/000135560/">A Fish Tale (6-Oct-2000)</a> <font size=-2 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">[VOICE]</font><br> <a href="/films/667/000035562/">Whatever It Takes (31-Mar-2000)</a> <br><p> <br> <p> <table> <tr> <td align=right valign=middle style="padding-right: 5px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 22px; font-style: italic; color: #ff3333;">New!</span><br> <a href="http://mapper.nndb.com/" class="fotmlink" style="font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; color: #dd0000;">NNDB MAPPER</a></td> <td valign=middle align=right style="border-left: 1px solid #bbb; padding-left: 5px;">Create a map starting with</td> <td valign=middle align=right><a href="http://mapper.nndb.com/start/?id=278815"><img src="/man.gif" border=0 style="padding: 2px;"></a></td> <td align=left valign=middle> <a href="http://mapper.nndb.com/start/?id=278815">Aaron Paul</a></td> </tr> </table> <font face="Trebuchet MS, arial, helvetica, sans-serif" size="-2">Requires Flash 7+ and Javascript.</font> <br><br><p> <font size=-1>Do you know something we don't?</font><br> <font size=-1><a href="http://commentary.nndb.com/submit/feedback/?id=278815" rel="nofollow">Submit a correction or make a comment about this profile</a></font><br> <p> <br><br><p><font size=-1>Copyright ©2019 Soylent Communications</font><p> </td></tr></table> </td></tr> </table> </td> <td width=180 align="center" valign="top" style="padding: 0px 0px 8px 25px;"></td></tr> </table> </center> </body> </html>
