RJ Mitte, well-known for his role at Walter Jnr in Breaking Bad, takes on the lead in this enjoyable thriller The Oak Room. Perhaps it’s because the nostalgia for going in and sitting at the bar of a pub is so rife, or the labyrinthine storytelling technique, as a clever little flick that is sure to keep your concentration.
We had the pleasure of speaking to the leading star Mitte, as we discussed the project at hand, while also looking back fondly on his time being a part of the White family, and whether the Breaking Bad collective still stay in touch. Given his cerebral palsy, we also ask about the pressures and rewards that come with balancing his career with activism, of which he does a great deal.

Synopsis
While a drifter tries to settle an old debt with a grizzled bartender by telling him a story, the night’s events quickly spin into a dark tale of mistaken identities, double-crosses and shocking violence.
The Oak Room is out on Digital on April 16th
