Westworld renewed for season 4, bringing total to 6 seasons

No release date for the new season has been announced yet.

HBO intends to produce a fourth season of the popular series Westworld. To confirm this, the company published a video on Twitter.

In the video, the title Westworld 3 changes to Westworld 4.

In the caption, the creators confirmed that a decision has just been made to renew the series for a fourth season. Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan will remain as showrunners. The terms of the deal provide that the project will have at least six seasons.

The third season moved the action of the series beyond the Westworld theme park into the real world, where rebellious robots work to destroy humanity.

Despite the unpredictable twists of the plot, the series' ratings dropped sharply compared with the previous two seasons. Viewers watched the third season half as much as the second. The final episode of the current season will air on May 3.

Nevertheless, Westworld is one of HBO's franchises, and the show is undoubtedly popular enough to justify a fourth season. No release date has been announced yet.

The series Westworld is based on a 1973 science fiction film. The second season of Westworld aired in 2018. The series follows an amusement park populated by androids, where wealthy guests indulge themselves and act on their desires without consequence.
