HBO has unveiled a new unsettling, foreboding poster for Westworld: Season 3, featuring the body of a Delos Incorporated android being metaphorically impaled by a towering skyscraper in the background.
Westworld, which returns on March 15, adds Breaking Bad’s Aaron Paul to the cast as a construction worker by day and criminal by night – who’s life crosses paths with new-to-the-outside world Dolores.
Check out the poster below, along with a new image of Evan Rachel Wood’s host-with-the-most…

The key art’s desolate sandy landscape seems to suggest a ruined world, as if Dolores’ proposed A.I. uprising will hold dire consequences for the future.
The tagline too, “Free Will is Not Free,” is a tweaking of the “Freedom isn’t Free” slogan used to express gratitude for the military. So just that sentence alone hints that a war is coming, and that lives will be lost in Dolores’ quest to gain supremacy over humanity.

Returning to the series, along with Wood, are Jeffrey Wright, Tessa Thompson, Emmy-winner Thandie Newton, Ed Harris, and Luke Hemsworth.
New cast members include Lena Waithe (Master of None, Ready Player One), Vincent Cassel (Ocean’s Twelve, Black Swan), Kid Cudi, the Seattle Seahawks’ Marshawn Lynch, John Gallagher Jr. (The Newsroom, 10 Cloverfield Lane), Michael Ealy (Almost Human, Stumptown), and Tommy Flanagan (Sons of Anarchy).
Previously, Westworld creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy discussed how this newest season will be a “radical shift” from what came before.
