Bryan Cranston & Aaron Paul Cover 'Rolling Stone' August 2012!

Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul grace the cover of Rolling Stone‘s latest issue, which hits newsstands this Friday (August 3).

Here’s what the Breaking Bad co-stars had to share with the mag:

Bryan, on his parents messy divorce: “I have some anger issues. There was alcohol abuse. And there were broken lives. There were two broken people. It was ugly. I didn’t see my father for 10 years.”

Byran, on almost losing the role to Steve Zahn, who was up for his role: “If Steve Zahn did Walter, we’d go, ‘Oh, my God. Steve Zahn is the guy! Can you imagine anybody but Steve Zahn doing it?’ And you wouldn’t be able to.”

Aaron, on dealing with ex-girlfriend’s drug abuse: “It went from coke and then it escalated to meth. Meth is the one that grabbed, like, nails-deep into her soul and slowly just ripped it out. She was this beautiful being, turned to this hollow shell.”
