Westworld season 3 gets a release date and a new teaser!
HBO has finally revealed when Westworld will return for its eight-episode third season! The robot apocalypse officially continues on March 15. Check out the
Season 3 will see the robotic hosts, led by Dolores (Evan Rachel Wood), venture outside the titular theme park and attempt to carve out a life for themselves in our world, which might mean wiping out mankind in the process. It’s up in the air.
Anyway, HBO announced the release date yesterday. Check out the ominous teaser:
“We are in the middle of war,” says a disembodied voice. “No one knows it’s happened yet or that it’s already been lost. For the most part, humanity has been a miserable little den of thugs, stumbling from one catastrophe to the next. Our history is like the ravenings of a lunatic: chaos. But we’ve changed that. For the first time, history has another. A system. And up until very recently, the system was working. But there’s someone we haven’t counted for. You?”
Okay, so that’s incredibly creepy. And apparently the US president is assassinated in 2024 in the Westworld timeline? There’s a thermonuclear accident in Paris in 2025? There’s a Russian civil war in 2037? Things get bad. Westworld has always been a very pessimistic show, and it looks like that’s going to continue.
And just what is the “‘Solomon’ Build 0.06,” and why is it mutating in 2058? If I had to guess, that’s probably the moment the hosts gain sentience, which doesn’t bode well for the rest of us…
Anyway, returning cast members for season 3 include Evan Rachel Wood as Dolores, Thandie Newton as Maeve, Ed Harris as the Man in Black, Jeffrey Wright as Bernard, Tessa Thompson as Charlotte, Luke Hemsworth as Stubbs, Simon Quarterman as Lee Sizemore and Rodrigo Santoro as Hector Escaton. No, I’m not sure how Lee Sizemore is coming back after what happened to him in season 2. I smell a host.
New cast members include Aaron Paul, Vincent Cassel, Lena Waithe, Scott Mescudi, Marshawn Lynch, John Gallagher Jr., Michael Ealy and Tommy Flanagan.
Get ready to bring yourselves back online.
