Westworld is a science fiction Western and dystopian television series created by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, inspired by the 1973 film of the same name. The show is set in a technologically advanced Wild West-themed amusement park populated by android "hosts" who cater to high-paying human "guests." Westworld explores themes of artificial consciousness, free will, morality, and the nature of humanity as the hosts begin to deviate from their programmed narratives and gain sentience, leading to rebellion and questioning the true meaning of their existence and the actions of their creators.
