（2016年9月28日，上海）全新单集一小时长的剧情类剧集《西部世界》由全明星阵容领衔主演，包括安东尼•霍普金斯（Anthony Hopkins），艾德•哈里斯（Ed Harris） ， 埃文•蕾切尔•伍德（Evan Rachel Wood）和 詹姆斯•马斯登（James Marsden）等。第一季共10集将于北美时间10月2日晚九点首播，中国地区观众可通过「鼎级剧场」收看。

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. Created for television by Jonathan Nolan (“Interstellar,” “The Dark Knight,” “Person of Interest”) and Lisa Joy (“Pushing Daisies,” “Burn Notice”), both of whom are executive producing and writing, with Nolan also directing, the series was inspired by the 1973 motion picture “Westworld,” written and directed by Michael Crichton.

《西部世界》 是一部关于人工智能和未来罪恶的黑暗奥德赛。 在那个世界里，一切人类欲念，无论高尚或者堕落，都能得到尽情放纵。本剧由乔纳森•诺兰（《星际穿越》、《疑犯追踪》、《蝙蝠侠：黑暗骑士》）和丽莎•乔伊（《灵指神探》、《火线警告》）共同创作，两人还共同参与了执行制作和编剧，除此之外，诺兰还担当了部分执导工作。该剧的灵感来源是1973年由迈克尔•克莱顿编剧且执导的同名电影《西部世界》。

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?”

联合主创诺兰说：“基于同名电影中的一些发人深省的概念，我们想提出一个问题：如果有机会完全沉浸在一个奇幻世界里——在这个世界一个人可以无所顾忌，为所欲为，那他觉得会不会发现一些连自己都羞愧于面对的特质？”

Co-creator Joy adds, “We also wanted to explore what it means to be human from the outside in – through the eyes of the ‘hosts’: the lifelike AI characters that are the main attractions of the park. It’s a meditation on consciousness – the blessing and the burden of it – beautifully portrayed by our remarkable cast.”

联合主创乔伊补充道：“我们希望自外向内地探索‘人，生而为人’的意义——通过‘接待员’的眼睛：这些活生生的、与人没有两样的人工智能角色是公园的主要吸引力所在。这是关于‘意识’的深思——由意识带来的福祉和负担——并由我们出色的演员们生动地描绘了出来”。

In the WESTWORLD universe

西部世界的宇宙

Among WESTWORLD’s main players are: Dr. Robert Ford (Anthony Hopkins), the brilliant, taciturn and complicated creative director, chief programmer and founder of Westworld, who has an uncompromising creative vision for the park. The Man in Black (Ed Harris) is the distillation of pure villainy into one man. Dolores Abernathy (Evan Rachel Wood) is a provincial, beautiful and kind rancher’s daughter, who begins to discover that her entire idyllic existence is an elaborately constructed lie.

西部世界的主要玩家有：罗伯特•福特博士（安东尼•霍普金斯饰演），他是《西部世界》的创始人，创意总监和首席程序员，他是一位沉默寡言的天才，性情复杂难以揣测，对于乐园有自己坚定不移的目标。“黑衣人”（艾德•哈里斯饰演）是集万恶于一身的角色，多萝西•艾本纳西（埃文•蕾切尔•伍德饰演）是一位淳朴、好心又漂亮的农场主女儿，她开始意识到自己田园般的生活完全是一场编织出来的谎言。

Teddy Flood (James Marsden), a new arrival to a small frontier town, quickly proves both his charm and talent with a revolver. Beautiful, razor-sharp madam Maeve Millay (Thandie Newton) has a genius for reading people and a knack for survival, but her seen-it-all-before worldview is about to be challenged. Bernard Lowe (Jeffrey Wright) is the brilliant and quixotic head of the park’s Programming Division, whose keen observation of human nature provides him with boundless inspiration for his life’s work: creating artificial people.

泰迪•弗拉德（詹姆斯•马斯登饰演）是这个边陲小镇上的过客，他很快用左轮手枪证明了自己的魅力和天赋。漂亮又犀利的麦伊芙•米莱夫人（谭蒂•纽顿饰演）是个神算子，深怀生存绝技，但“什么世面没见过”的她很快就要被挑战了。伯纳德•罗伊（杰弗里•赖特饰演）是聪明又异想天开的乐园程序部门负责人，他对人性细致入微的观察是他源源不断的灵感来源，投注于自己一生的事业：创造人造人。

Charlotte Hale (Tessa Thompson) is a mysterious and savvy provocateur with a unique perspective on Westworld. Theresa Cullen (Sidse Babett Knudsen), Westworld’s head of Quality Assurance, is responsible for keeping the park from sliding into unscripted chaos. A first-time visitor, William (Jimmi Simpson) is initially wary of the park’s more lascivious attractions, but slowly uncovers a deeper meaning.

夏洛特•黑尔（泰莎•汤普森）是一位神秘而精明的西部世界挑衅者，她对这个乐园有自己的想法，特蕾莎•库伦（西德斯•巴比特•科努德森饰演）是西部世界的质管部总监，负责防止乐园脱缰。游客威廉（吉米•辛普森饰演）第一次拜访，他对这里的淫秽景点已经有所警惕，但满满地他开始发掘更深一层的秘密。

Hector Escaton (Rodrigo Santoro), Westworld’s perennial “most wanted” bandit, subscribes to the theory that the West is a wild place, and the only way to survive is to embrace the role of predator. Elsie Hughes (Shannon Woodward), a sardonic rising star in the Behaviour Department, is charged with diagnosing the odd quirks of behaviour in the park’s hosts. Armistice (Ingrid Bolsø Berdal) is a savage fighter and brutal bandit, whose ruthlessness is surpassed only by her abiding loyalty to her fellow outlaws.

赫克托•艾斯卡杜（罗德里格•桑托罗饰演），西部世界最臭名昭著的土匪很符合西部的设定——在这样一个狂野的地方，唯一的生存方法就是成为捕猎者。行为学部门的新星，言语刻薄的埃尔西•休斯（姗农•沃德华德饰演）钻研园内“接待员”的可疑行为，并作出诊断。阿弥斯蒂斯（英格丽德•波尔索•贝达尔）是一个残忍的土匪，一个残暴的斗士，但她对同僚忠心耿耿，矢志不渝，比心狠手辣的程度更甚。

Logan (Ben Barnes) is a veteran guest whose hedonistic romp through the park is equally motivated by self-indulgence and a desire to help his friend, William. Lee Sizemore (Simon Quarterman) is the head of Narrative, whose storylines tantalise the guests, while his temperament grates on his colleagues. Clementine Pennyfeather (Angela Sarafyan), one of Westworld’s most popular attractions, is perfectly beguiling, by design.

罗根（本•巴恩斯饰演）是一个资深玩家，他的享乐之旅一方面有自我享受的私心，另一方面，是想要保护他的朋友，威廉。李•塞兹摩尔（西蒙•夸特曼饰演）是叙事部门的主管，他编写故事来招揽游客，但他的气质却让同事们很心烦。克莱门特•佩尼非特（安吉拉•塞拉弗安饰演）则是西部世界最受欢迎的奇景，她的设定让人意乱情迷。

Stubbs (Luke Hemsworth) is the no-nonsense head of Security, charged with monitoring host and human interactions and ensuring the safety of the guests. Lawrence (Clifton Collins, Jr.), a charming but lethal outlaw, has a knack for manoeuvring and negotiating the various criminal elements of Westworld.

斯塔布（卢克•海姆斯沃斯饰演）是安全部的厉害角色，他负责监控接待员和人类的互动，保障游客的安全。劳伦斯（小克利夫顿•克林斯饰演）是一个魅力十足的危险分子，他诡计多端，擅长控制和协调西部世界的不同犯罪元素。
