Westworld: Evan Rachel Wood shares BTS photos and videos
By Renay
Westworld season 3 may be far, far away but the cast is helping us fill the void left in our hearts with their personal, candid and behind the scenes pictures and videos. Here are some gems from Evan Rachel Wood!
As Westworld began wrapping up its second season, the cast began releasing some of their personal pictures taken on the set. It’s always such a treat for fans to get a peek behind the curtain of what goes on behind the scenes. Especially for an intense show such as Westworld.
Speaking of intense. Playing the role of Dolores is understandably exhausting and Evan shows us how she gets naps in when she can between filming her scenes.
Westworld features so many deaths and disasters we couldn’t count them all if we wanted to. But what about casualties on set? All that desert sand, dust, and heat take its toll on more than just the actors. One such casualty appears to be the result of Evan dropping her cell phone in the sand. This is an absolutely relatable calamity.
After the season two finale, Evan shared a movie that was made by herself and her fellow cast mates, Jimmi Simpson and Shannon Woodward. This farewell video was dedicated to all of us fans with the promise of seeing us again for season three. It really is a beautiful video!
On the heels of this featurette, Evan’s friend, actor Jimmi Simpson, released his own version of the video. I thoroughly combed through Jimmi’s Instagram page but couldn’t seem to find the original post. So the post I’m adding is actually a re-post from our very own ‘Beyond Westworld’ Instagram page.
This next photo from Evan is described as being taken behind the scenes during the initial filming of season one. She says that this picture was taken on the porch in the Westworld town of Sweetwater, where she first met Ben Barnes and Jimmi Simpson for the first time. She adds that, at the time, they had no idea where the show was taking them. In her own words: “I love these 2 dearly, and you will always be my original partners in crime.” referring to Ben and Jimmi.

One of my absolute favorite photos is this one showing a tender behind the scenes moment shared between Evan and Thandie Newton, who plays Maeve on the show. In Evan’s own words: “The moment @thandienewton and I wrapped season 2 of #Westworld. I adore this woman more than words can express and I am so proud of the work she did. Thank you for your light, your fierceness, and all you do.”
I’d like to think I saved the best for last. Not just because I’m completely smitten with Ben Barnes, who plays Logan on the show, but also because it’s done in a style I’m very familiar with – the 1980’s montage. You’ve probably seen an homage to this kind of scene in the 2002 movie, The Sweetest Thing. Oh, and yes, the video begins with a black screen. There’s nothing wrong with your player.
I could truly watch this video every single day and not get tired of it. I highly recommend fans of the show follow all the actors that appear in Westworld. They post so many great photos and videos which help you get to know them better and get a peek into their lives. You can see lots more from Evan by following her on Instagram and Twitter.
