One of HBO’s biggest shows is adding another star. Aaron Paul, who starred in AMC’s classic series Breaking Bad, is joining the third season of Westworld.
The news was first reported by Deadline, with Paul reportedly set to become a series regular. It’s unclear if Paul will be a host or a human (we might not know even when the show returns), but there could be big plans for such an esteemed actor known for expertly pulling off emotional scenes as he did for so many years as Jesse Pinkman on Breaking Bad. Paul earned three Emmys for his role as Pinkman.
Paul himself chimed in on the news with a tweet.

Take what you will from that, but it could be hinting that Paul will be playing a host—perhaps one created by Dolores and company in the outside world.
Created by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, and starring Evan Rachel Wood, Ed Harris, Thandie Newton, Jeffery Wright, James Marsden, and Anthony Hopkins, among others, Westworld is expected to return in 2019 or 2020.
I just finished Breaking Bad he’s an amazing actor.
