[Here’s the link.](http://deadline.com/2017/03/westworld-talulah-riley-promoted-series-regular-season-2-angela-hbo-1202049050/) It’s a brief story saying that Talulah Riley, who played the robot hostess greeting visitors to WW in the last season, will also be a series regular in Season 2. But I can’t decide whether the second sentence below is a huge reveal or, well I don’t know what it means if it isn’t. > [@](#): > > Riley will continue as Angela, the host whose beatific face welcomed guests to Westworld for decades. **She will prove to be one of the last faces many guests will ever see.** Now to me that implies that guests will still be coming to the park in Season 2 and that the robots will be killing them. But I haven’t seen any announcements by the creators which would justify that statement. Have I missed something and if I haven’t what the hell do they mean by that? ---

Well it certainly looks to be a very strong hint that bad things are going to happen to the guests. Very bad things. ---

It doesn’t look like the author has any inside info, just speculating based off the end of season 1. Is season 2 even written yet? EDIT: Of course, he’s wrong anyway. Angela doesn’t welcome guests anymore. ---

I think they just mean that she’ll be bad ass. The one thing that kind of bugged me though was that “greeter” Angela seemed to be the only host who was aware she was a host. ---

I actually thought that was interesting. The character is kind of an interface between what is real and what is not. ---

Presumably all Hosts serving as greeters are aware that they’re Hosts and that Westworld is a theme park; it doesn’t necessarily mean they any more self-aware than the Hosts in the park, just that they’re programed that way so they can prepare Guests for entry into the park. Her being the last face the Guests could be referring to her killing Guests already in the part, not the more Guests will be arriving. ---

Don’t care if it is a spoiler. She was the hottest host in that park and if it means I’ll see more of her then they can do whatever they want. That scene where she greets William… the sexiest scene in the whole show. ---

The creators posted a spoiler filled promo for season 2! Beware! Seriously though, I recommend at least watching the first three minutes. No major spoilers, but some incredible footage.

Dude, spoiler tag! Sounds like you missed the whole point of the video; did you notice what song she was singing? ---

I don’t think this requires spoiling … there are some who analyze trailers and scenes frame by frame looking in the background for clues. At this point I would suspect that the real trailers that have been released have footage that will not be in the show and is there just to mess with the minds of those who do that.
