Aaron Paul Is Heading to HBO for Season 3 of ‘Westworld’

Aaron Paul is trading his gas mask for a cowboy hat in the upcoming season of Westworld.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Breaking Bad star is joining the popular HBO series for season three. Although the network is keeping the details under wraps, we can’t help but feel like Jesse Pinkman had this coming.

This will be Paul’s first series regular role since he starred in Breaking Bad from 2008 to 2013. (Well, excluding the actor’s upcoming role in Are You Sleeping, which is being produced by Reese Witherspoon.)

While little is known about the third season of Westworld, we expect it to pick up where the season two finale left off. (You know, with the park in ruins.)

How will Jesse, er, Aaron fit into the story line? Only time will tell.
