Aaron Paulhas joined the cast of HBO’sWestworldfor the science-fiction drama’s third season. No word yet on who theBreaking Badstar might be playing—or if he’s host or human—butDeadlinereports that Paul is hopping aboard the train to Sweetwater as a series regular.
The three-time Emmy-winner joins the show at a mighty tumultuous time in theWestworlduniverse. Season 2 concluded with yet another layer ofJonathan NolanandLisa Joy’s puzzle box getting peeled back, asEvan Rachel Wood’s robot revolutionary Dolores andJeffrey Wright’s Bernard find themselves among flesh-and-blood humans outside the Westworld park. Joy hasalready teaseda new season completely unlike anything that came before:
“It’s going to be a whole new world. And we technically have three [hosts], because Hale is out there, too, or someone who certainly looks like Tessa Thompson! We’ll come to see who’s really there and what that character is in the future. This series is about reinvention and scope. The first season was a more intimate look at the park from within the loops. In the second season, the hosts broke out of their loops and were able to explore more of the park. In the third season, they’ve broken out of the park itself. We’re in terra incognita. From the beginning, when Jonah and I were thinking about the series as far back as the pilot, we knew we wanted to explore other worlds in the park, and we also knew the one world we would start to see little glimpses of throughout the first two seasons was the real world, and that we would get there eventually — and when we did, it would be a whole new experience.”
Paul can next be seen alongsideOctavia Spencerin Apple’s anthology seriesAre you Sleeping?fromReese Witherspoon’s production company, Hello Sunshine.
