Jimmi Simpson Reads Absurd Westworld Fan Theories | ELLE

[@ELLE]

What's your favorite Westworld Fan Theory?

[@44excalibur]

The one about William becoming a human host, obviously. ;)

[@cwspartan]

unlimited power!!!

[@jhev107]

Ending of game of thrones will have an object that has the delos symbol in it.

[@shehroz295]

maeve is going to kill William's daughter!!!

[@jasonkelley4057]

I like the idea that old William has been a host in the park all along. I think his cornerstone of his wife committing suicide, might be true or even a blended memory of him killing himself. He can't see what would hurt him, so the memory gets changed.

[@Sai-du7cg]

When you realise that most of those theories were correct.

[@omarsabir1210]

Yeah especially the guests turning their bodies to hosts.

[@olegshevchenko5869]

The twist: denying these theories are true only reinforces the fact that they are correct. All of them. Each single one of them. Simultaneously.

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

LOL)))

[@KwstasKourtis]

they turned out to be true , at least some of them

[@982JOE]

It's hard not to love this guy

[@MultiMemich]

Especially is you are a McPoyle.

[@maazkalim]

+Tyler So what are you?? A hillbilly???°

[@Haruka_Power]

*Read the theory* “doesn’t look like anything to me.”

[@SlinkyJosh]

HAHAHAHA

[@maazkalim]

Imma not a HOST!!!°

[@jackyj1204]

I had never thought of that first Abernathy theory but now my mind is indeed blown

[@ZachsMind]

I actually thought of that Abernathy theory after watching the James Delos episode cuz why else would Abernathy freak out over a picture of Juliet unless he had been James Delos at some point? However, hearing Jimmi Simpson say it out loud has made me realize it sounds preposterous, so I'm abandoning the theory. Of course that probably means it's true.

[@MegaMapper]

it could be his body (one of first) that were failed as many others but owners decided to put his host body with failed human mind into the westworld as reprogrammed normal host.

[@tadtranclere3729]

Jacky J I didn’t even realize it was a theory anymore after episode 4 of this season. I thought it was just a fact.

[@NiklasGeisler]

But they started putting the big data into Abernathy wayyyy later on in the show I believe Abernathy is triggered by the ‘futuristic’ environment in that photo

[@agriperma]

Some of these theories I have been spreading on fan sites, and channels, particularly the one that James Delos, but after episode 5, I am leaning towards only the 33% of the hosts that have been found with their memory banks wiped clean. are backed up in Abernathy. And they have host replacement bodies to upload these memories to, I also believe William ( MiB ) will be uploaded to a host body of young William ( Jimmi Simpson. ) and will end up with Dolores. I have a long explanation for all this, and reasons ( clues ) as to why, this is not the right place for all that.

[@McSneakFreaks]

“Abernathy is so essential to the show that hes gonna blow *a* mind“

[@ManSeekingMeaning]

LOL “I like the way you use words, but they’re incorrect.” Hilarious. This guy, Harris, and Wright are really holding up season 2 along with the William storyline. Hoping to see more of the magic I saw in episode 4.

[@Oatyquakenbush]

Hayate Yukimura, yeah I 100% agree, I think Dolores will get more interesting but these actors are just so good, Jeffery Wright being my favorite, and the writers are doing so well with these three story lines. Dolores is leaving a little bit to be desired and Maeve is getting better but these three are just awesome can’t wait for tonight’s episode.

[@paulinabs]

“I like the way you use words... but they’re incorrect” *throws card away* hahahah that killed me. He’s great

[@DocSchtupacs420]

We know for a fact that he lied about at least two of those .

[@luckyDancer100]

Owen Coogan could be he just didn’t know, and just having fun. He wasn’t in much of season two. Just flashbacks.

[@MsHojat]

I don't think so. It depends how you interpret them. Also I'm pretty sure he doesn't even know; he's not a writer or director, and even the acting he does is very limited to specific things and hence doesn't get much information.

[@charlescampbell9427]

i like how he openly denies what we already know lmao

[@quokka8842]

Jimmi Simpson is way too entertaining for them to not keep him for all five seasons definitely like the young William Host hybrid option. Question is, is Jonathon Nolan optimistic enough about love to give people a love story ending.....?

[@spacecadet2172]

I thought these were supposed to be "absurd" theories??

[@josha3271]

William: Maeve is still waiting for your call. Diego: That's not gonna happen. William: YOU WILL CALL HER

[@francinesux]

don't lie to us, Jimmi!!!!!

[@Jbelovedson]

I love the HBO cinematic universe . Lol

[@ravezjunejo]

Oh man! This guy is INCREDIBLE! Had me laughing throughout the video! How come I never saw this guy before?! Thank you Westworld! PS: Saddest part of WW S2 is not seeing the Dolores/Young William romance again which was one of the highlights of the last season and poor Dolores's horrible life.

[@44excalibur]

Ravez Junejo From what Jimmi says at 1:11 we might possibly get young William/Dolores again. ;)

[@lshaaa]

I always cry when I see young William and Delores💔

[@valeriew4833]

Lol ikr it sucks pretty bad to be Delores

[@valeriew4833]

You guys should check out black mirror he's in one episode and it's a great one

[@ravezjunejo]

@44excalibur Wow, wouldn't that be great? Maybe that's why they killed off Teddy?

[@Bamgeutcutiepie]

lol he is so weird. i love it

[@SlinkyJosh]

I like how the ones he says are incorrect are the ones that turned out to be correct.

[@brittanysloan8368]

The first theory was my theory too!!

[@jeanlouise4707]

He's so funny. I love watching his Westworld interview-ish vids

[@Chengification]

he did an excellent job bluffing lmao truly an actor

[@Chocobear]

The 1st (or 2nd?) theory has literally been confirmed on the show. To the person who theorized that: good job!

[@shambhavijoshi159]

Chocobear Yeah. The 2nd theory, somewhat.

[@ddot196]

I remember first watching this guy on Always Sunny and wow has he had such a great career since then. Great actor.

[@meetudeshi3520]

0:51 is such a HUGE spoiler! Jimmi literally gives away what he's thinking and he's thinking "How the f*** does this guy know this!"

[@Hovinga]

the New Jeff Goldblum

[@Jo-chilin]

Topher Hover haha he’s not the new anything cuz Jeff is still around still being himself but they do remind me of each other

[@popburnsy3207]

They should play father and son

[@Movie_Motif]

YES! spot on!

[@reactions5783]

Life, .... finds a way.

[@silkthyme]

i feel like i was spoiled

[@JhonnyRango]

you can never been SPOILED in westworld, you can watch the show a thousand times and still been BLOWN away ... Freeze all motor function

[@sosickandtiredofalltheneed568]

@@JhonnyRango Except Season 3. When it becomes a ripoff of Black Mirror and Charlie's Angels.

[@TheDeathgod01]

0:40 nailed it.

[@JoeSmith-pp6uy]

That first one was basically right

[@SethGoldman89]

Jimmi Simpson needs to read everything Westworld related. Hope Vanity Fair does another season recap video with him.

[@N93000]

This man should be the next Doctor who

[@rollercoaster24]

As much as he wants to deny them, some of season 2 was literally changed because fans guessed what it would be about. The only ‘credibility’ I have is a Warner Bros. tour guide knows someone who works on the show. So yeah what we talk about is watched and matters, we really change the final outcome.

[@cheeseofultimatedoom]

rollercoaster24 yeah and my dad works for Nintendo

[@rollercoaster24]

omg me too

[@maazkalim]

+nowhereboy True that!!! I can vouch for his credentials! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@richardbrown3055]

Whoever the fan was that submitted the theory about the Game of Thrones must have crapped when we got to see a GoT dragon this season.

[@OzoneProBone]

god i love him so much

[@3Hellokittykitty]

Lol jimmi Simpson is so dramatic in real life haha

[@k2893687081]

I have been loving her eyes since 2016

[@Kaipyro67ALT]

Watching this at the end of the second season, some of theses theories are spot on!

[@beeztrapp1612]

I bet one of these are correct. I'm thinking 1 or 2.

[@44excalibur]

Beez Trapp It's more than likely theory #4 at 1:11 just from the expression on Jimmi's face. ;)

[@tobi6277]

Beez Trapp I mean nr.2 is basically correct at this point

[@popburnsy3207]

I bet there's some elements that are really really close

[@beeztrapp1612]

44excalibur I am thinking I agree with you, especially now that I'm caught up in the show. I hasn't seen eps 4 or 5 when I posted this.

[@sanotaku6273]

jimmi simpson is so adorable ecen though he acts the villain quite well

[@Nonfactor.]

1:11 "None of that makes sense to me" So yeep true.

[@rahulbpanicker3]

He was shocked by that 1st one. That was basically season 2

[@keandric2765]

OK ONE, he his HILARIOUS XD XD 2) He got SO excited about the Fantasy World theory and it was Great xD :))

[@jaybingham3711]

Hey...McPoyle! Stop calling yourself Jimmi!

[@thomasmicheal5480]

Into the first theory and already blown away.

[@MsTwissy]

J. Simpson is my favorite actor. Ever since psych and breakout kings

[@13Fayt13]

Lol so fun.. Love jimmi glad to see him in more popular shows and to keep us guessing

[@sety40]

He’s gonna sit here and tell us that “WestWorld is not convoluted”? 😂I cant even!

[@Jaba6798]

Jimmi Simpson is McPoyle in real life.

[@potato511]

He's dead........to me....HE'S DEEEEEAD!!!!!!! (ノ°Д°）ノ

[@desertviolet12]

YOU’LL CALL HER!

[@alexanderespinoza]

Just glad to hear I'm not the only one who spent my highschool years listening to Transatlanticism and crying!

[@sandraleepitts]

Yeah, all I know is , Lyle The Intern From Letterman, Went into Westworld long ago. And I couldn't be more happy about seeing this actor's arch ! Keep at it Lyle ! You Rock !

[@linaaviles430]

Two years later and the Game of Thrones world theory is also correct

[@ELLE]

🤯🤯🤯

[@kathrynd6779]

Why am I so attracted to him omg

[@manthe3711]

Because you're a horny skank.

[@kylewarren5268]

Ha! The 2nd one he reads is EXACTLY what was goin on. Lol

[@MaxyStark]

The Disrespect of Finding out how true the Theories were, and him denying them like nothing.

[@zb5836]

*You will call her!!*

[@jadeavlis]

I love him! He is always so funny!!!!! 💓💓😂😂😂

[@Movie_Motif]

Didn't realize how funny Jimmi is....I love him! #YoungWilliamForever

[@RizosNegros24]

No, no. William is Lyle the intern and Dolores is Letterman. He finally agreed to participate in one of Lyle's crazy ideas.

[@kirjuschaks]

two theories mentioned were pretty interesting: Ford programmed them to revolt, for making a challenge for william and the other where dallas research for upoading conciousness and Ford made it before

[@shoalsofficial9334]

Theory at 1:29 is totally correct. I'd put money on it. Ford was the conciousness that Bernard made in that flashback in S2E4. I guessed this theory after episode 2, and episode 4 confirms it for me.

[@litlejoystick]

So funny to see that Jimmy is actually more like his character in Sunny than in Westworld

[@kingroosta]

I love jimmi. I've been a huge fan since that cheerleader spy movie and the haunted video game movie. I'm so glad his name is finally getting as big as it deserves.

[@lilyscior-lewis7746]

Love how they just slipped the actual plot into there

[@brianhartling7767]

Underrated Legend~

[@flop9265]

I love him more of this content please

[@elif-ne6pr]

I LOVE THIS and the theory about Dolores being Mcpoyle

[@Lillyparkernewsom]

Omg he is a little weird like on always sunny, ill never be able to get that image out of my head as long as I see him haha

[@PresidentialWinner]

"YOU WILL CALL HEEEERRRRR!"

[@nb6166]

Little!?

[@alexclementinoo]

When i first started watching Westworld all i could think about when i saw Jimmi Simpson was him drinking warm milk in an open bath robe but now all i can think about is the MIB

[@Lala445ful]

I’m so in love

[@tobiasmohr3991]

How dare this man be so cute

[@GalahadFranco]

Well, that HBO Universe theory turned out to be true in Season 3, with the Game of Thrones Park. Impressive!

[@twinklepug]

Totally getting Jeff Goldblum vibes from him. Especially the little eye squints, small nods, and whispers.

[@laughsngasps]

One of those theories was spot on and others extremely close PS I’m definitely down for a Westworld GOT mash up!

[@georgerafa5041]

Luv ya bro! Hope to see more of you in future eps

[@AreAndBeDesigns]

"Spoiler alert." - Jimmy Simpson Recaps Season 1 in 6 minutes

[@getlikeus1247]

This guy is awesome!

[@jamesmilner9648]

The way he said head gonna blow. Mark my words gents. By the end of the season, Abernathy’s head will be shot and the data it was holding will be gone. JUST WATCH I KNOW WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT.

[@Meepers_the_Great]

2:13 IM CRYING 😂😂🤣😂

[@dizzydee9939]

Abernathy doesn't have Delos in his head, he likely has all the IP, DNA and data of all the guests visiting. So, they could literally clone whoever they want. The reveal this season is that Bernard is actually an Arnold Bernard hybrid. Ford discovered the hybrids needed to go through a process for the human mind to accept the host body, they needed to be in a fugue state of mind with memories with no address.

[@kuromyou7969]

First theory off the bat was one I had too....

[@Segimaru]

I require an audiobook series made by Jimmi Simpson.

[@nessa.exo-l]

so weird and cute aff gotta love him

[@standupphilosopher7059]

His deep voice and glasses 🥰🤓🍿🎥🤖😘

[@farus_channel]

Well, he's a robot I guess 🤣 1:11

[@JDugald221]

Looking good there, Yung William

[@Zero8880]

If Radiohead ever gets a biopic, they need to tap Jimi to play Thom.

[@redmed10]

They are all in purgatory waiting for jack to accept he's dead.

[@aniceguyinablackhat]

I figured the lake was was the "valley beyond" when they said they were starting to drain it.

[@PlantBasedBride]

He is so entertaining to watch 🙈

[@pauloabundo]

A Westworld spinoff is now in cinema: Jurrasic World

[@pinkdiamondlatte]

I love those frames so much

[@abhishetty2637]

Sounds like guy with pure blood, blood that's been pure for a thousand years

[@whomustnotbenamed5]

He's *adorable* !

[@MCB741]

I can actually see young william making a cameo maybe next season as a host considering he wore a different hat but who knows how it works.

[@DragonBornGirl50]

OMG pls young william as a host so he can be with Dolores again !!!

[@ozanaydogan]

1:16 he said possibly and season finale we saw it is true :d

[@avocatobobble]

Haters of this series and/or of this season can get the f out. This show gives me more hype and joy to watch than a lot of shows that exist right now.

[@mikelj135]

Ooooh i the 1st theory was correct! Either that or someone is owed royalties

[@daveninjaneuro7089]

That beard needs to meet the other sides

[@silverblue73]

maybe his beard is suffering in order to become conscious

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

LOL!)

[@thehightable5995]

I wish I could be smart enough to know what is inside Nolan/Joy's head. They are brilliant.
