In a recent interview with Deadline, Golden Globe winner Jeffrey Wright has finally shared a new update about HBO’s upcoming fourth season of Westworld, confirming that production has already been completed. He also teased that the next season’s story will be more familiar to viewers than the last season.

“We wrapped last December, but I’m not exactly sure when it’s when it’s coming out,” Wright said. “Season 4 is going to be more of the Westworld you’ve come to expect and more digging down into some issues and some technology that is going to look familiar to us, as always. It’s gonna be exciting.”
