VIDEO: First Look - Anthony Hopkins Stars in HBO Drama Series WESTWORLD

The one-hour drama series WESTWORLD kicks off its ten-episode season Sunday October. 2nd at 9:00 p.m.(ET/PT), exclusively on HBO. Check out the first trailer below!

Created for television by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy the series was inspired by the 1973 motion picture "Westworld," written and directed by Michael Crichton.

WESTWORLD is a dark odyssey about the dawn of artificial consciousness and the evolution of sin, exploring a world in which every human appetite, no matter how noble or depraved, can be indulged.

Co-creator Nolan explains, "Building on the incredibly evocative concept of the original film, we wanted to pose the question: If you could be completely immersed in a fantasy, one in which you could do whatever you wanted, would you discover things about yourself that you didn't want to know?"

WESTWORLD stars Anthony Hopkins ('Equus'), Ed Harris (off-Broadway, 'Buried Child'), Evan Rachel Wood, James Marsden ('Hairspray'), Thandie Newton (West End, 'Death and the Maiden') and Jeffrey Wright (Emmy® and Golden Globe winner for HBO's "Angels in America").
