《西部世界》:和第二季相比第一季就是“小打小闹”
The first season of Westworld was a wild ride full of twists, thrills, and existential mysteries, but it looks like that's nothing compared to what Season 2 will be when it airs on April 22. Entertainment Weekly spoke with the cast of Westworld and some of the people behind the scenes about what we can expect in the reality-bending Westworld and beyond. According to Jeffrey Wright, the actor behind Bernard Lowe, Season 2 goes in hard in really big ways. “The scale of Season 2 is just nuts, literally right out of the gate,” Wright told EW. “It’s so much more expansive, it makes the first season look like a genteel kitchen drama.” As fans of Westworld know, the first season was pretty far from anything resembling a genteel kitchen drama so we know that Season 2 is probably going to blow minds. Wright and others gave a little insight into what that is going to look like and what their characters are up to in the new season. 警告:以下内容含有对《西部世界》第二季的微剧透和对第一季的重磅剧透。 For Season 2, the focus will be on the uprising that kicked off in the first season, and at least some of the show's head-scratching mysteries will be solved, showrunner Jonathan Nolan said. “We don’t like to endlessly build mystery; we like to settle our debts by the end of the season,” Nolan said. “We want to feel like the show is rocketing ahead. The first season was a journey inward; this is a journey outward. It’s a search for what else is in the park, and what else is beyond the park.” Nolan also shared that the show will take a deeper dive into the minds and points-of-view of the hosts. “So as the hosts learn more about their world — and other worlds, and the real world — the audience is doing the same thing,” he said. Evan Rachel Wood shared how her character Dolores has evolved and what she's doing with her newfound power. “She’s playing the chess master,” Wood said. “She has access to all of her memories, but now she’s in control. There are some scenes where she’s three different people in the span of a minute.” In terms of expansiveness, the new season is likely to head to new parks outside of Westworld, including the park that was teased at the end of Season 1, called Shogun World. Ed Harris, who plays the hardcore Man in Black, told EW that Season 2 will be enjoyable to watch, although he's not sure he totally understands where everything is going. “It’s a pretty trippy second year, man, I gotta tell you that,” he said. “Hopefully somebody can explain it all to me after it airs. But it’s going to be tremendously watchable.” |
