The New Mexico Film Office made an announcement last Monday confirming the return of "Better Call Saul" Season 3 cast in New Mexico for the shoot of the new installment.

Because of this, people from New Mexico will have the chance to get employed by the series, The Seattle Times reports. They will get the chance to appear on the same screen with Bob Odenkirk and all of the other casts of "Better Call Saul" Season 3.

"Better Call Saul" is produced by Sony Pictures Television. It follows the life of Jimmy McGill (portrayed by Bob Odenkirk) who will later on re-introduce himself as Saul Goodman, the high-profile lawyer whose main clients are drug lords.

According to ABQ Journal, all the crews and stars for "Better Call Saul" Season 3 will be housed at the Albuquerque Studios. It was learned that they will hire about 70 to 90 New Mexico crews. Because of this, Maniatis could only utter good words to the makers of the series. "Sony has proven to be an excellent partner with the City of Albuquerque and the State of New Mexico," he said.

Aside from Odenkirk, "Better Call Saul" Season 3 is also starred by Michael Mando, Rhea Seehorn, Michael McKean, Jonathan Banks and Patrick Fabian. Meanwhile, Thomas Schnauz, Gennifer Hutchison, Melissa Bernstein, Peter Gould, Mark Johnson and Vinci Gilligan will all run the show.

The Mayor of Albuquerque, Richard J. Berry, also expressed his gratitude to the makers of the show. "The film industry provides high-paying, creative jobs to our citizens and many businesses are affected positively by the filming here in Albuquerque," he said. He also added that they are thrilled to welcome back the award-winning series for its third season. Fans can expect to see "Better Call Saul" on the first quarter of 2017.
