Predictably, Westworld was renewed for a second season just a few weeks ago too, so there will eventually be answers given to some of the finale’s unanswered questions.
Then again, after the rushed nature of True Detective‘s season 2, the prolonged wait for Westworld season 1 may end up being the best decision for HBO and the show’s creative team could have made.
Due to production requirements though, the series isn’t likely to return until 2018, unfortunately, which means fans will likely have to wait longer than they may want for those answers.
HBO has been in search of a series to fill the gap between Game of Thrones seasons, however, and following the quick death of Vinyl earlier this year and True Detective‘s disintegration after its second season, this comes as welcome news for the programming giant.
