The first season of Westworld just ended and fans are probably wondering when they can expect a second season of the hit HBO series.

“We’ve started working on scripts and outlines. It’s looking good. It’s looking very ambitious. There’s some surprises and bits of it that you won’t see coming. I’m having fun,” Lisa said in an interview with Variety.

HBO just gave out renewals for all three of its new series – Westworld, Divorce, and Insecure.

While fans of Evan Rachel Wood‘s Westworld can get excited for more episodes of the daring new drama, they might have to wait a little while.

“Westworld is such a big, ambitious show. I don’t know if it will be fall of 2017 or into ’18,” HBO programming president Casey Bloys told THR. “That will depend as we get up and running. With Westworld, because the production is such a big endeavor, I don’t exactly know when [it will premiere] yet. I can’t speculate other than to say it’ll either be ’17 or ’18. Probably more like ’18 and half-hours [Insecure and Divorce] in ’17 but we’re a year away so let’s see how it goes.”

Divorce stars Sarah Jessica Parker while Insecure stars newcomer Issa Rae.
