‘Westworld’ stars Jeffrey Wright and Luke Hemsworth tease season 2 will be bigger
“Westworld” stars Luke Hemsworth (Stubbs) and Jeffrey Wright (Bernard/Arnold) have teased fans about what’s to come in the second season of the series. Hemsworth said the world is going to get bigger in “Westworld” season 2, while Wright has revealed that the second instalment will be about chaos and mayhem.
Hemsworth has mentioned that the samurai world is really attractive and that he actually loves the idea. It seems there is a lot in store for fans in the second season as the actor has revealed that the first season was actually only a prequel.
Meanwhile, Wright has teased fans about the possible plot for the next instalment. He explained that the first season has been about creating order. Next season, it will be about chaos.
Hemsworth finds great joy in discovering “Westworld.” He has randomly shared during the Dubai International Film Festival that he doesn’t have it in him to rape the robots or cut off their heads.
In the series, Hemsworth plays the head of security at the theme park of the same name as the show. Wright’s character, on the other hand, has become the new captain of “Westworld” since Dr Robert Ford (Anthony Hopkins) has been shot dead.
Hemsworth has also appeared in “Infini” (2015), “Kill Me Three Times” (2014) and “The Anomaly” (2014). Last year, he was nominated for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series for his performance in “Westworld.”
Those who have tuned in to the show are aware that Wright actually had to play both a host and a human. Bernard is his character’s host version while Arnold is the human character. Wright has to attend to present day scenes and act human again when he plays Arnold in a flashback.
The actor has shared to the Wrap that working with Evan Rachel Wood (Dolores) has actually inspired him to meet the demands of his roles. “I took some cues from her, and it was easy because she’s such a phenomenal actor,” he said.
Wright is also known for his role as Belize in the HBO miniseries “Angels in America,” Jean-Michel Basquiat in “Basquiat” and as Felix Leiter in the James Bond films “Casino Royale” and “Quantum of Solace.” Fans will get to see more of Hemsworth and Wright’s characters when the series returns as both of them will be back to reprise their roles.
The series is confirmed to be back in 2018. Official air date for “Westworld” season 2 is yet to be announced. Foxtel has airefd “Westworld” season 1 in Australia.
