The new Westworld series is actually the second TV version sprung from the 1973 sci-fi film. The first, Beyond Westworld aired in 1980 and lasted just five episodes. The new one is already a huge deal. When the first episode aired in the States it was HBO’s biggest series debut in three years.

Big names like Sir Anthony Hopkins, Thandie Newton and Ed Harris and a 9.3 rating over at IMDB hints this could be THE series to watch this fall.
