Westworld HBO show could be delayed to 2017
It's based on Michael Crichton's 1973 film of the same name which was about a futuristic adult theme park where people could pay to take part in all manner of activities, including shootouts with gunslingers. It's a bit dated now but the concepts are still interesting and prescient and Yul Brynner makes for a pretty creepy bot.
So there was plenty of material to draw from in cooking up a new take on the show, in this case led by Jonathan Nolan - the brother of Interstellar director Christoper Nolan and his sometime co-writer. The cast was eventually assembled to include Anthony Hopkins, Ed Harris, James Marsden and Thandie Newton and we even got a really weird teaser video.
