One of the biggest hits that HBO had ever seen with its silver screen projects, after the likes ofGame of Thrones, was the first season ofWestworld. This cyber fantasy show was hailed as one of the most innovative series witnessed in a long while, which also enhancing Evan Rachel Wood’s career in the long run.
But from the advent of the second season, the show started to go downhill and maintained that downward spiral until it was canceled in 2022 at the end of season 4. But what has caught Rachel Wood’s mind in a perpetual state of distress is the severe lack of a proper end that the show faced until its untimely and unjust conclusion almost two years ago.
Evan Rachel Wood Still Ponders And Stresses About HowWestworldShould’ve Ended
The cancelation of shows has always been a subject of debate and controversy from the viewpoint of the stars, the fans, and the production company together.
Thus, when HBO’sWestworldcame to an end with its cancelation three months after the finale of season 4, it was quite devastating for everyone, more so forEvan Rachel Woodbecause she wasn’t only the lead star, but she didn’t know how the show would’ve eventually ended.
As the news of the cancelation of the series came mere months after the end of the fourth season, there was never a proper end to the show, which only added to the distress that the lack of knowledge of how the original ending was planned had on the actress. In a recent interview withThe Hollywood Reporter, theFrozen IIstar revealed how she felt after being notified that the show had ended.
Along with not knowing the original end, she had only sparse knowledge of the direction the show was headed, which didn’t help either. She said:
“It was devastating in a lot of ways because, first of all, they don’t tell us where the show is going.We were just always told, ‘We know how the show ends,’ when we started, They weren’t writing it as we went along.They had an idea, and we were all just on abed of nailswaiting to see and hear what the conclusion of this was.What it all meant. We didn’t get to have that and so after building an arc and a character for almost10 yearsand not getting the payoff at the end to see where it was all going — I think for us and the audience, it was awful in a lot of ways,”
Apart from the decline in ratings that the show faced after the first season, another contributing factor leading to the show’s cancelation was the COVID-19 Pandemic that delayed the fourth season by almost two years.
What WasWestworldAbout?
One of the strong suits that madeWestworldso intriguing was the premise of a futuristic amusement park that was based on the Wild West from the old times where people could experience that era through the help of androids known as hosts.
But this future of entertainment and amusement starts to turn into a dystopia when the androids start to malfunction one by one, among whom an android namedDolores Abernathy, a long-serving host, gains sentience, and as all her fellow hosts start falling into this spiral one by one, she is charged with leading an uprising of the androids.
