There are many, many questions about what will happen in the second season of HBO‘s terrific “Westworld” (for example, will we get more samurais?). However, everyone involved with the show are keeping the secrets hidden for now. But the lid is slowly coming off, and if you’re wondering what the deal is with that white robot aka drone host, an answer of sorts has been provided.
“The drone hosts relate to the corporation’s secret project which is hidden in plain sight in this park,” co-creator Jonathan Nolan told EW. “As we talked about in the pilot, the park is one thing for the guests, and it’s another thing for its shareholders and management — something completely different. We’ve used the Google analogy — for consumers, it’s for search and email, yet for the company, it’s for advertising. There is an agenda here that Delos has undertaken for a very long time. As Bernard is making his way through the wreckage of the fallout from the first season, he’s discovering things about the park that even he doesn’t know and coming upon creatures like the drone host.”
Damn. We can’t wait to find out what that all means. For now, here’s a batch of new images from “Westworld” season 2, which arrives on April 22nd.
