While TV lovers might be divided about the later seasons, there’s no denying that HBO’s Westworld is one of the buzziest shows of the last few years.
It makes a lot of sense, then, that HBO was keen to bring on one of the Westworld’s key players for this newest high-concept series.
Specifically, Roberto Patino, a two-time Emmy-nominated writer, will serve as the showrunner for DMZ — thus guaranteeing that the promising streaming adaptation will be another intriguing, intellectually stimulating show under HBO’s brand.
With its pulpy premise, heady concepts, thoughtful commentary, starry performances, crisp photography, and top-notch production design, the expensive and expansive sci-fi blockbuster remains one of the most visually dexterous shows on television.
