Aaron Paul already starred in one of the most critically acclaimed TV shows of all time, and he’s getting ready to do it once again. HBO just announced the Breaking Bad actor will be joining new seasons of their hit drama Westworld.
Paul shared amazing news with millions of his Twitter followers by writing “I feel like I’m in a dream Dolores. Can you wake me up from this dream? #Westworld”. There’s a veil of mystery surrounding his future role. It’s still unclear if he’s going to play a member of the Delos board or one of the hosts.
HBO describes this sci-fi drama as a dark odyssey that follows the dawn of artificial consciousness and the evolution of sin. It takes place in a Wild-West-themed amusement park, where guests can embark on epic adventures, surrounded by hosts programmed to fulfill their wildest desires.
Westworld premiered in 2016, to rave reviews. It received a total of 43 Emmy Awards over the course of two seasons. It’s competing in all of the major categories at this year’s ceremony, including Outstanding Drama Series. It was also nominated for this coveted award last year but lost to The Handmaid’s Tale.
