Interview with the SHOW'S CREATORS: DOLORES will be BACK again in S4 !!!!


The BIGGEST CONCERN for me was whether or not DOLORES was leaving the show (like FORD). And thankfully this interview makes it CLEAR that she'll BE BACK AGAIN:

QUOTE:

Dolores (Evan Rachel Wood) managed to eradicate the all-knowing artificial intelligence Rehoboam, but in doing so seemingly erased herself from existence, all as the real world fell into chaos — that we had to find out what it all meant. Co-creators (and real-life couple) Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy and executive producer Denise Thé, who co-wrote the finale with Nolan, spoke with Variety about the implications for the future of the HBO series, the eerie connection between the finale and the COVID-19 pandemic and whether the fabled six-season run of the show is really in the cards.
So let’s start with the most immediate question: Is Evan Rachel Wood leaving the show?
[Six second pause]
Jonathan Nolan: I f—ing hope not. Let me clarify: Dolores is gone. We’re not yet discussing publicly the direction the show is taking, but the fun thing about this show is, you know, from the beginning Lisa and I wanted to make a show that constantly reinvented itself, that could be a different show every season. I think it’s important with a show in which death can be impermanent — these are robots, after all — to mark the occasion with Dolores. That version of that character is gone. We love Evan Rachel Wood and we haven’t [sighs] started talking publicly about exactly what the show looks like going forward. But it looks very different.

So perhaps when BERN WAKES UP we'll be located in some kind of FUTURE where people are MIGRATING or have MIGRATED to OTHER WORLDS to get away from the DESTRUCTION of this one???

And maybe we'll also MIGRATE OUT into SPACE as well which may also explain the reason why it will LOOK VERY DIFFERENT NEXT SEASON???

Did anyone else NOTE the way the TOP of DELOS already looked VERY DIFFERENT this season??? Because you use to be able to see the SWIMMING POOL and the BAR which were located on TOP of the STRUCTURE where CHARLOTTE first meets the WRITER. But this SEASON it looked completely DIFFERENT and like the entire STRUCTURE had been REDESIGNED to where there wasn't any POOL or BAR located there on the ROOF TOP anymore???

Anyhow, how much damage has been done to DOLORES??? Will she be like CLEMENTINE was after they put the DRILL up her nose??? Or will the other MEMORIES where she only chose to see the BEAUTY in things be the only one's that remain???

If that's what happens to her, then wouldn't she also be an EXTREMELY BORING character to watch (especially if she goes back to doing the same LOOPS again where DROPS the CAN of MILK)???

yet another elaborate drawn out death scene for nothing then.

reply

They learned from GoT.

reply

The ORIGINAL DOLORES might be DEAD, but there are OTHER COPIES of her which are NOT DEAD.

And CHAR-LORES is OBVIOUSLY the one who would be the BIGGEST THREAT next season (due to the ARMY she's PRODUCING and the way we also saw her using the HOLOGRAPHIC TECHNOLOGY the same way as SERAC was doing throughout S3).

Because we also see her VANISHING into THIN AIR the same way as Serac does.

And IF they MIGRATE to OTHER WORLDS, that could probably also solve many of the COVID ISSUES (due to the way they could also have characters located inside of other SPACE SHIPS where they could SHOOT at each other instead of needing to do more FACE to FACE FIGHT SCENES).

Anyhow, whereas WILLIAM MURDERS the other COPIES of himself, claims to be the GOOD GUY, and then goes on another KILLING SPREE where he MURDERS the SECURITY GUARD in the MIDDLE EAST, it would also be interesting to see DOLORES being REINTEGRATED again with the OTHER MISSING PARTS of herself so that she could become WHOLE AGAIN.

Because wouldn't those other PEARLS also contain the ORIGINAL MEMORIES that would have been DESTORYED or DELETED by SERAC???

Unlike some of you I look forward to seeing S4.

reply

Does anyone give a shit at this point? This show is a mess. Just when it looks like they might have improved over the so-so season 2, we get THAT finale. What a disaster.

reply

Yes. Anyone does. The show selects its audience. ‘Bye.

reply

They all are Dolores.

She even mentioned that her artificial mind was the only one that didn't fail and that all the hosts have been made as copies of that mind.

So all the new hosts WILL be Dolores, made as copies of her. Or copies of Charlotte-Dolores.

The actress will be back? Maybe.

But i don't think season 4 is necessary. 3 was pretty bad so they can stop messing with it.

reply

But wasn't that also BEFORE the mind of WILLIAM was somehow able to make the TRANSITION from HUMAN to HOST???

And if Char-lores is making COPIES of herself, then WHY did she have a copy of the MAN in BLACK???

Would he also have a part of DOLORES inside of him as well???

And WHY did BERN also RESIST FORD when he insisted on PIMPING OUT DOLORES??? As you may recall, it was also ANGELA who was sent to SEDUCE LOGAN so FORD could get the money he needed to FUND the PARKS out of him.

So if DOLORES was OLDER than ANGELA, why was ANGELA more SOPHISTICATED in the ART of SEDUCTION than DOLORES??? And why was DOLORES still so CHILD LIKE when she sees the CITY LIGHTS and tells BERN/ARNOLD that it looked like the SKY was FULL of STARS???

If Angela was YOUNGER than DOLORES, then why was she acting MORE MATURE???

As for DOLORES …

one could also see CALEB RESURRECTING her again and PROGRAMING her DELETED MEMORIES with a NEW NARRATIVE where she would be his WIFE.


Then if she meets up with another COPY of herself ... and if they do the SAME THING to her that MAEVE did to HECTOR ... (after he lost his MEMORY of MAEVE in WAR WORLD), then DOLORES could also WAKE UP AGAIN to DISCOVER how she's pretty much been doing a LIFE of LOOPS as the WIFE of CALEB???

reply

She didn't have a copy of the man in black, a copy of her was in the host man in black.

reply

How can you be so sure that was the case???

So you're suggesting CHAR-LORES is doing the SAME THING that she is pissed off at DOLORES having done???

And she's also making COPIES of herself and placing them into bodies to do her DIRTY WORK for her the same way as DOLORES was doing when she sends CHAR-LORES to get the DELOS DATA for her before SERAC takes over???

Wouldn't that also make CHAR-LORES the worst kind of a HYPOCRITE for doing the same thing as DOLORES did???

reply

There is a Dolores pearl in the Mexican guy (Clifton Collins Jr).

And probably many others no problem to bring her back...

reply

The problem is once she's inside of the body of another HOST she begins to CHANGE into that HOST (like she does when she's inside of the body of CHARLOTTE).

So being inside of LAWRENCE (the MEXICAN Guy) could also have the same kind of results again where she takes on HIS personality the way CHAR-LORES also assumes the family members of CHARLOTTE were her FAMILY.

And LAWRENCE also has a wife and a daughter like CHARLOTTE had a son and a husband.

reply

Yeah but Char-lores was supposed to play the part of a real person in the real world.

And Charlotte had a family in real world.

Lawrence was a host in first place. He only cared about his host family because his pearl forced him to be that way.

Outside of Westworld Lawrence and his host family are not supposed to exist.

So Dolores is supposed to stay Dolores inside of Lawrence's body.

No reason for her to change.

reply

Good point. But the PEARL doesn't determine if one has a family or not as much as the NARRATIVE does that is PROGRAMED into the HOST. Remember how FORD also completely changed the personality of DOLORES by programing the WYATT NARRATIVE into her??? He also did the same thing as well to TEDDY (before DOLORES also did it by turning up the part on the TABLET that made him more EVIL and mean).

And remember how the FATHER of DOLORES was also NOT her REAL FATHER either, but she still had feelings for him as if he were.

And the daughter of MAEVE was also NOT her REAL DAUGHTER either, but she also still continues to feel as if she IS really her child.

Therefore there's no reason to assume that LAWRENCE will feel any differently about his wife and child than MAEVE does about her child, or any differently that DOLORES feels about her FATHER the RANCHER.

Right???

If Clementine and the ASIAN SNAKE GIRL hadn't removed the head of the ASIAN version of DOLORES it would also look like they were setting up some kind of a WAR to take place between the different PARKS.

Because you'd have LAWRENCE from WESTWORLD doing battle with CHAR-LORES (originally from REAL WORLD which I also suspect might really be FUTURE WORLD), and then you'd also have the other ASIAN version of DOLORES from SHOGUN WORLD (where we also heard the OTHER HOST upset that DOLORES had SOILED the memory of what she considered to be a GREAT MAN).

So what you could end up with is other HYBRID HOSTS (combinations of DOLORES and other HOSTS from other PARKS) doing battle with each other.

PLUS BERN/ARNOLD (who was also suppose to have been a HUMAN like CHARLOTTE before he became a HOST) also still considers CHARLIE to be his SON as well.

And what's interesting is how we also MEET the WIFE who also still MISSES their SON (who is also NOT EVEN suppose to EXIST at all … according to FORD who said he MADE her and the SON UP as a CORNERSTONE for BERN).

So that's also what makes one SUSPECT the so called REAL WORLD is still another PARK (which we can also call FUTURE WORLD).

And IF that's the case, then what might happen in S4 is BERN will create an ARMY of HOSTS from the SUBLIME to BATTLE the other ARMY of HOSTS that CHAR-LORES is building and those 2 ARMIES will do BATTLE with each other for CONTROL of DELOS???

And with MAEVE having made FRIENDS with CALEB now, it also looks like she might end up being on the side that's AGAINST BERN??? Which would also be INTERSTING with her OWN DAUGHTER that she cares so much about also being in the SUBLIME now or being a member of the other side that would be fighting against her???

reply

This last season was really not good. I thought it was over this season. You're telling me there will be yet another season? Not sure if that is a good or bad thing.
