HWD Daily – Thandie Newton Breaks Down Westworld Season Three

Feel free to share:

Thandie Newton Breaks Down Westworld Season Three

Still not entirely certain you grok what happened in the third season of HBO’s twisty Westworld? Thandie Newton—and V.F.’s own Joanna Robinson—is here to help. The Emmy winner joins Robinson for the final episode of our Still Watching: Westworld podcast to discuss the sci-fi drama’s finale, as well as her hopes for its upcoming fourth season. The series’ journey, Newton admits, has been physically taxing for her: “I look at my little boy—he’s six. He was six months old when we started shooting this show. Then I look at myself in the mirror, [and I see] this exhausted woman, and I think, Bloody hell, man, you gotta get your shit together.” Still, what she really wants is for the globe to be in a good place post-pandemic by the time she and her castmates get back to work: “It’s like, the world is potentially going to be okay enough for us to do this again. Let’s hope.”

Elsewhere in HWD, Julie Miller chats with a royal expert about the forthcoming PBS special The Queen at War, and interviews Ryan Murphy and Hollywood star Jake Picking about rewriting Rock Hudson’s fate; Robinson learns how Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni managed to prevent The Mandalorian’s Baby Yoda from being too cute (seriously!); and Donald Liebenson emails with Val Kilmer about the actor’s unconventional new memoir.
