Westworld behind the scenes- this looks great

Westworld is a new show on the way from HBO and while it has its root in the original movie there's a lot more going on.

Michael Crichton's 1973 movie Westworld still has some pretty interesting things to say about the potential of AI and the nature of our pursuit of escapism but it's also a rather stuffy and slow by modern standards, and doesn't explore the themes as deeply as it might.

Crichton's core idea is now being used as the inspiration for a new show by HBO and the combination of a large budget, a new creative team and an incredible cast might make this the new show to beat.
