As Better Call Saul final season is returning for the last batch of episodes with season 6 part 2 on this weekend, July 11, the teaser which released ahead of the season premiere, reveals a recast of a key role for the final episodes.

Better Call Saul Jeff Has Been Recast
The character of Jeff, the inquisitive cab driver who recognized Gene in a Season 5 flash-forward has been recast with Pat Healy taking over the role from Don Harvey, which can be seen in the new teaser. The character of Jeff has only been seen in Better Call Saul‘s “Gene in Omaha” which flash-forwards to Jimmy’s post-Breaking Bad life, first as the driver of Gene’s cab in Season 4 and then in that awkward run-in in Season 5, where Jeff recognizes Gene as the former Saul Goodman. Harvey played the role both times.
Actor Don Harvey has appeared recently in the HBO drama We Own This City, and it clashed with his appearance on Better Call Saul, as Harvey couldn’t reprise Jeff due to contractual obligations on the former show. So the makers have opted out for a recast with Pat Healy playing Jeff in the final batch of episodes. We have yet to see how fans and viewers are going to receive Jeff’s recast, although the role so far had a very minor screen time, Jeff is the main antagonist to Saul’s Cinnabon manager Gene.
Better Call Saul Season 6 Part 2 is going to premiere on July 11 on AMC. Read here for detailed time and Netflix release.
