The spectre of the Man in Black will haunt Westworld for a while yet.
Ed Harris confirmed that he'll be back on the HBO hit next season, in an interview with BBC Radio 4's Front Row.
"I was just talking to Jonah Nolan last night, who's a creator of this thing with his wife Lisa Joy, and yeah, they're doing another season," he said. "They're going to do 10 more episodes, and I will be involved."
Warning: spoilers follow for episode 8 of Westworld...
The Man in Black's identity has been debated furiously by fans of the series, with many suspecting that he's an older version of William (Jimmi Simpson).
The show's latest outing, 'Trace Decay', went some way towards confirming the theory, as Harris's character recognised a blonde female host left at the scene of an attack by Wyatt's men.

"It's you," he says. "I figured they retired you."
Eagle-eyed viewers will recognise the host as the same one who greeted William when he first arrived at Westworld... so does this prove his connection to the MiB?
Westworld continues on Sundays at 9/8c on HBO in the US and on Tuesdays at 9pm on Sky Atlantic in the UK.
Enjoy the next two episodes, because season two - announced by HBO earlier this month - isn't expected to launch till 2018.
