Jonathan Nolan's "Westworld," which debuted on HBO in October, has been garnering critical acclaim from viewers and media outlets alike. Now that there are only four more episodes left in the freshman season, we're left to wonder why there's no HBO renewal in sight for the show.
There's no news coming out of HBO yet with regards to "Westworld" season 2 is a go. Forbes cites that while the show does generate much buzz among viewers, it is quite expensive to produce given the multiple timelines and how the story is played out. However, they are confident that there will be an HBO renewal in sight for the show. But what's in store for the remaining four episodes of "Westworld?"
Fans are banking on an HBO renewal for "Westworld," given the complexities of the story and the mysteries that it has presented to viewers in the past six episodes. One of the most mysterious of them is the Man in Black, whose identity we do not know to this day. Some are speculating that the Man in Black, played by Ed Harris, is, in fact, William from 30 years after.
"Westworld" is known for its multiple timelines, something that's very intriguing to viewers. Some believe that the series follows two timelines, while others believe there could be more. This would definitely allow the Man in Black to be William if there were multiple timelines involved. Now that "Westworld" is coming to a close with four more remaining episodes, does this mean that the Man in Black is to be unveiled before the season finale?
Collider reports that the Man in Black is the leader of an organization that "saves lives." He's also an expert who knows his way around the park, which he has been visiting for decades. Fans would also know that the Man in Black and Dr. Ford are connected and that the latter is aware of the former's mission to find the maze. We're only hoping for the Man in Black to be unveiled before the season finale, or that an HBO renewal is on its way, so we can get to the bottom of this already.
