Rhea Seehorn and Bob Odenkirk, seen here last week at the Los Angeles premiere of “Better Call Saul’s” final season, will be in Hollywood on Monday when Odenkirk is honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Hours before the season premiere of “Better Call Saul” begins on AMC, star Bob Odenkirk will be honored with a different kind of star.
The Naperville North High School grad, who resumed shooting the acclaimed “Breaking Bad” spinoff’s final season after suffering a heart attack last July on its New Mexico set, will be immortalized Monday with the 2,720th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Odenkirk’s terrazzo and brass star marking his nearly 40-year career in film and television will reside on Vine Street in Los Angeles, in front of the Aster Hotel, according to a news release from the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce.
Joining Odenkirk for the ceremony will be “Better Call Saul” co-star Rhea Seehorn and comedian David Cross, who teamed up with Odenkirk for the HBO sketch comedy series “Mr. Show.”
The ceremony will be livestreamed at 1:30 p.m. Monday at walkoffame.com. The first two episodes of “Better Call Saul’s” sixth season begin at 8 p.m. later that day on AMC.
Catch up on previous seasons of “Better Call Saul” — as well as “Breaking Bad” and its follow-up movie, “El Camino” — on Netflix.

How do you get on the Walk of Fame?
Nominees for 2023 are accepted online at walkoffame.com until May 27, and the process has many requirements, mostly suitable for the prospective star’s management team. If the nominee from one of the six accepted categories — movies, TV, radio, recording, live theater and sports entertainment — makes the Walk of Fame Committee’s cut of 30 or so finalists, the nominee must then pay $55,000 for their ceremony. All selections must be approved by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce and be submitted to the City of Los Angeles’ Board of Public Works Department.
