Bob Odenkirk, geboren am 22. Oktober 1962 in Berwyn, Illinois, ist ein US-amerikanischer Schauspieler, Komiker, Autor, Regisseur und Produzent. Bekannt wurde er vor allem als Saul Goodman in „Breaking Bad“ und „Better Call Saul“. Für seine Arbeit als Autor gewann er 1989 und 1993 den Emmy für herausragendes Drehbuch für eine Variety-Serie; für „Better Call Saul“ erhielt er zudem fünf Emmy-Nominierungen als herausragender Hauptdarsteller in einer Dramaserie. Odenkirk schrieb für „Saturday Night Live“, „The Ben Stiller Show“ und „Late Night with Conan O'Brien“. Gemeinsam mit David Cross entwickelte er „Mr. Show with Bob and David“ und stand dort selbst vor der Kamera. Später produzierte er unter anderem die Serien von Tim & Eric und führte bei den Filmen „Melvin Goes to Dinner“, „Let's Go to Prison“ und „The Brothers Solomon“ Regie. Auch als Schauspieler war er in Filmen wie „Nebraska“, „The Post“, „Little Women“ und „Nobody“ zu sehen.
