Westworld adds additional cast members ahead of season two premiere
With less than two weeks left before the highly anticipated Season Two premiere of HBO’s Westworld, there is a lot of hype surrounding its return. New cast members and one recurring cast member have been added to the already stellar cast for Season Two.
The new additions include Tao Okamoto (Man In the High Castle), Julia Jones (Wind River), Kiki Sukezane (Heroes: Reborn), and Zahn McClarnon (The Son). Magnificent Seven’s Martin Sensmeir is now confirmed to have a recurring role in Season Two.
While Sensmeir will return as Wanahton, Okamoto will be playing the role of a character named Hanaryo. In addition, Jones will be playing Kohana, Sukezane will be playing Sakura, and McClarnon is taking on the role of Akecheta.
Who each of these characters is and what role they will play in the second season is yet to be seen. Luckily, the wait is almost over and we are just days away from diving back into this perplexing world!
Westworld is created for television by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy and is based on the Michael Crichton novel of the same name. Season Two will dive into additional worlds including Shogun World and explore the host rebellion against Delos.
