Westworld season 2 episode 8 trailer teases new character

Westworld gave over an entire episode to providing some backstory for the Shogunworld hosts, but so far in the show we've learned next to nothing about the Native American characters that roam the Wild West park.

That looks set to change in season 2 episode 8 which, judging by the teaser trailer, centres on the tribesman we're used to seeing in warpaint and and what looks to be a new character (possibly his daughter or partner).

The Native Americans were kind of overlooked during the mass awakening of the hosts, and the trailer references this, the tribesman saying:

"Take my heart when you go. The past was calling me, but before I could understand it, they took everything from me."

The emphasis on these characters is probably also simply down to the fact the show doesn't want to risk giving anything away, and I'm sure there will be a sub-plot taking places in the labs.

Once episode 8 airs on Sunday there will be just two episodes left in Westworld season 2.

The show is broadcast on HBO in the US and through Sky Atlantic and NOW TV in the UK.
