Makers of Breaking Bad prequel Better Call Saul, have given fans a first look at the show.

The update includes the release of a photo from the set in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where production started on its first 10-episode season earlier this month.

The network also added that a second season of Better Call Saul has already been ordered.

AMC said the announcements were the first of several planned updates.

Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan is directing the Better Call Saul series premiere along with fellow Breaking Bad colleague Peter Gould, creator of the Saul Goodman character.

It was also confirmed that the first series of the show will premiere in early 2015, with the second set to hit screens in 2016.

Specific dates will follow, but the show will join The Walking Dead and Talking Dead, in being aired in the first three months of each of the next two years.

AMC president Charlie Collier said: "Production on Better Call Saul is under way, and we could not be more proud of, nor more excited about, the work to date.

"We join the fans in eager anticipation for this series, and today we happily confirm that our initial Saul order is for two seasons and a total of 23 episodes.

"When introducing any series, especially one with the DNA of Breaking Bad, there are countless factors to consider in making sure the show gets the launch it deserves. No half measures."

In addition to Gilligan and Gould, several Breaking Bad writers have returned to work on Better Call Saul, including Thomas Schnauz and Gennifer Hutchison.

Bradley Paul has also joined the writing team, along with Gordon Smith, who was a writers' assistant on Breaking Bad.
