JJ Abrams

Alongside breathtaking visuals and a storyline that’s hard to predict, Westworld also has some big names behind the scenes who always produce must-watch movies and TV.

As has been mentioned previously, the showrunner is Jonathan Nolan, the screenwriter of many of his brother’s movies (The Dark Knight films, The Prestige, Interstellar) and creator of cult TV show Person of Interest. Meanwhile, Lisa Joy (Pushing Daisies, Burn Notice) serves as co-creator and showrunner. Joy is also linked to the touted Battlestar Galactica movie that’s set to be directed by Francis Lawrence of The Hunger Games. Other writers for the show include Marvel comics writer Ed Brubaker in his TV debut and Dominic Mitchell, a British writer who created acclaimed zombie drama In The Flesh.

On the exec producing side of things, none other than J.J. Abrams is involved. He who brought Star Trek and Star Wars back from the dead is now rebooting another (if lesser-known) sci-fi franchise for the 21st century.
