Season 2 will be about the hosts gaining consciousness about the realities of their circumstances and their identity. The showrunners said that the upcoming season will highlight the hosts' choices once they become sentient. Moving forward in the second season, there will be "flies" now that the "gloves are off" in the park.
Jonathan Nolan also revealed that "Westworld" Season 2 might not air until 2018. He said that considering the ambitious and exigent production and script, it would almost be impossible to run the show every year despite being the common practice. But, showrunners deem it best to release one season every three years.
