Consider this to be one of the meatier interviews that are floating around out there. Apparently, and unsurprisingly, it’s difficult to play a Host. It doesn’t come across during the actual course of the show (which adds to its appeal,) and it’s not something you really think about. But Evan Rachel Wood, as Dolores, has to go through some impressive acting hoops to pull off the quick emotional and non-emotional responses. She refers to them as the “acting olympics,” and there is reason enough to believe she’s right. It’s an impressive accomplishment.
Also, remember that fly from the first episode? Yeah, it was real. If you didn’t know that fly wranglers exist, you do now. Wood doesn’t touch on where the plot is going or any of the current fan theories, though she is aware that they’re all out there.
It’s not easy playing a Host and it’s also not easy waiting for a new episode of Westworld to premiere. Not quite on the same level, but it’s not a contest. HBO is being careful with Westworld and so they haven’t renewed it yet, but it’s only a matter of time.
Next: Here's to watch episode 5 of Westworld online.
While it’s been fun watching Wood talk about Dolores and the show in general, it would be nice to give James Marsden a turn so he can finally be asked why he is constantly getting killed. Teddy never can get a break, it seems.
