Westworld continues to look absolutely fascinating, and the latest trailer offers another small but no less tantalizing glimpse into its dystopic vision of the future. Based on the 1973 cult sci-fi classic of the same name, the HBO series will follow the titular theme park-ish destination, where rich people from all over the world pay handsomely for the chance to act out their wildest fantasies in a fictional wild west town filled with androids. This latest trailer shows an appropriately creepy Anthony Hopkins reminding his guests that the park's, ahem, attractions aren't exactly real. 

Co-starring Anthony Hopkins, Evan Rachel Wood, Thandie Newton, James Marsden and Ed Harris, Westworld will debut on HBO on October 2.
