Anthony Hopkins makes his US TV series debut in a new pilot from JJ Abrams, based on the 1970′s sci-fi classic Westworld. He has signed onto the HBO pilot, along with Evan Rachel Wood, instantly grabbing the pilot a ton of attention it didn’t necessarily have.
Hopkins is just the latest in a long line of excellent grabs for the pay network, following Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson for the first True Detective (and a rumored Colin Farrell for the second).
