Westworld has made its long-awaited return, expanding its universe beyond the technologically advanced theme parks into the futuristic real world. Like it did for Season 2, the series has introduced a slew of new characters with Season 3—although, we can't quite confirm yet whether they're all human or something else. Here, we round up all the confirmed, returning, and new cast members for Westworld's latest chapter. Watch this space weekly as new faces join the cast. Warning: Spoilers for Season 2 and Season 3 lie ahead.

After undergoing an existential crisis last season, Bernard is back and suspendered up on a meat farm. "Season 3 in some ways is about exploring a new park. And that's the world outside of Westworld. So in some ways those characters, the hosts, become guests," Wright said of the new chapter.
