Westworld is a 2016 TV adaptation of 1973 film of the same name. It was created by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy for HBO. Nolan serves as executive producer along with Joy, J. J. Abrams, Jerry Weintraub, and Bryan Burk. Nolan & Joy have said that they have enough material for "five seasons" just exploring Westworld park, but left the question of other Delos Destinations parks existing, and being used in the show open. In Season 2, a park based on medieval Japan was encountered. In Season 3 a park based on World War II-era Italy was revealed.

About the Series

The series is a dark odyssey about the dawn of artificial consciousness and the evolution of sin. Set at the intersection of the near future and the re-imagined past, it explores a world in which every human appetite, no matter how noble or depraved, can be indulged.

Inspired by the 1973 film Westworld, which was written and directed by Michael Crichton.
