The final episodes of Breaking Bad are still weeks away, but the first teaser for the AMC series has just shown up online. The clip features Bryan Cranston, who plays chemistry teacher-turned-drug kingpin Walter White on the show, reading Ozymandias — a Percy Bysshe Shelley sonnet about the fall of empires. Suffice it to say things don’t portend well for White. The first new episode of Breaking Bad airs at 9PM ET on August 11th.
