Gustavo Fring

Gustavo "Gus" Fring is a fictional character portrayed by Giancarlo Esposito in the Breaking Bad franchise, serving as the main antagonist of the crime drama series Breaking Bad and a major character in its prequel Better Call Saul.
== In the Project Series ==
The character Donkey Kong from Project Mario is reminiscent of that of Gustavo Fring's role as a ruthless drug-lord boss. He is the leader of his own drug cartel and gave Mario a threatening speech about how if he tries to kill Luigi or interfere with a political rally, he will kill his entire family. This is a direct homage to the moment in Breaking Bad where the main character Walter White is threatened by Gus with the death of his family if he does not stay away from the Meth Super-Lab and Walter's partner, Jesse Pinkman. In a possible sequel, Donkey Kong is said to have a more prominent role like his inspiration.
Gus is a closeted homosexual, quite like Batman.
== Trivia ==
Gus was originally meant to be a one-time guest performance but Giancarlo Esposito decided that he'd play him like he had a secret to make the writers bring him back.
