Robopocalypse
Despite its curious absence from the halls of SDCC, a fresh round of images from HBO's newly minted adaptation of Westworld have been released into the wild. Jonathan Nolan, executive producer of the series, was at comic con attending the panel for his other show Person of Interest, during which he shared some of these images, as well as some con-exclusive footage, with fans.
Based on the film released in 1973 by Michael Crichton, the series centres on a futuristic theme-park that allows visitors to indulge their innermost desires and immerse themselves in living history. The illusion is maintained by an army of AI constructs that, in time honoured fashion, slowly begin to overcome their programming and start preying on the park's human inhabitants.
As yet, no release date for the series has been given, but rumour is it will arrive sometime next year.
