HBO’s Westworld has gone through no scarcity of casting shakeups over the course of its veryfirst 3 seasons. While it’s still got some of its initial cast, such as Evan Rachel Wood, Thandiwe Newton, and Jeffrey Wright, much of its characters in the veryfirst 2 seasons haveactually been gone assoonas the program left the titular park. Surprisingly, one of the OG cast members is making a return for season 4.
During the ATX Festival over the weekend, series co-creator Lisa Joy exposed that James Marsden would be making his return, unexpected everybody at the reveal’s panel by appearing togetherwith Joy and other cast members, consistingof Wright, Wood, and Luke Hemsworth (Ashley Stubbs). “Sometimes you have to go away to come back,” joked Marsden. In the veryfirst 2 seasons, he played park cowboy Teddy Flood, who was deeply in love with Dolores (Wood) priorto taking his own life after seeing her murder style park visitors. Having been away from the series for so long, he’s delighted to come back and occupy this sci-fi world onceagain. “It’s an incredible thing to be a part of and see where the story goes,” he continued. “From the starting, I didn’t understand where it was all gonna go however I’m delighted to see it now.”
With the program now in the genuine world, Marsden will be playing a presently unnamed character who serves as a love interest for Wood’s brand-new character, Christina. Dolores passedaway throughout the ending of the previous season, however Joy liked working with Wood so much that she understood she desired to keep the star around. She and co-creator Jonathan Nolan notified Wood of Dolores’ end throughout the production of season 3, and the trio talkedabout what that suggested for the star going forward. With the pledge that she’d be back, Wood remembered the discussion as, “’You’ll appearance a lot like Evan Rachel Wood’, however I’m not me.”
We got a short glance of Christina towards the end of the veryfirst trailer for season 4 back in May. Wood went on to explain her as “a typical lady living in a huge city simply attempting to make it as a author.” She likewise included that “nothing ever occurs to her [Christina],” which implies that some shit is absolutely about to go down for her. How Christina will link up with the rest of the reveal’s cast is presently in the dark, however no doubt this will likewise pull Marsden’s brand-new hunk into the orbit of her misadventures. And this is presuming Christina’s as brand-new as she’s stated to be. With how much Westworld loves attempting to outsmart its audience, this character might quickly be Dolores doing a long con.
