Westworld season 2 won't start until 2018

published 30 July 2017

HBO officially confirmed Westworld's return with a first look at Comic-Con – but Season 2 won't be hitting our screens until Spring 2018, according to Screen Rant.

Season 2 of the hit sci-fi drama series is already in production, and we've been given teasers about who's returning to the park, and who will be entering for the first time.

It was recently revealed that Jimmi Simpson – aka Young William, aka The Man in Black – will be coming back to answer some of those as-yet-unanswered questions.

"There [are] a few more questions that they're gonna answer for us as far as exactly how that transition occurred and what it felt like to him and other people," Jimmi explained.

In equally great news, Luke Hemsworth is also set to return for Season 2 as MIA Head of Security, Ashley Stubbs.

Stubbs has been mysteriously missing from Westworld after a run-in with park warriors, but it looks like he might be making a comeback. Perhaps Elsie will too?

But if you don't want any clues as to what Westworld has in store for characters old and new, then you might want to stay off Reddit, according to the show's co-creator Lisa Joy.
