Ed Harris takes Top villain role in HBOs "Westworld" reboot
Sweet. Loved this film when I was a kid. It's ripe for a reboot.
Doesn't sound like he's playing the Yul Brenner role though http://insidetv.ew.com/2014/08/11/ed-harris-westworld/ Image Credit: WireImage.com Ed Harris is coming to series TV: The Abyss and Apollo 13 actor has signed on as the Big Bad in HBO’s Westworld reboot. The four-time Oscar nominee’s character is called The Man in Black, and is described as “the distillation of pure villainy into one man.” He joins previously cast star — and fellow series television newcomer—Anthony Hopkins, along with Evan Rachel Wood, Jeffrey Wright, and Shannon Woodward. The Warner Bros.-produced sci-fi pilot produced by J.J Abrams, Jerry Weintraub, and Bryan Burk updates Michael Crichton’s 1973 classic film about a theme park where androids fulfill dark human desires. Harris’ description might sound like he’s playing the Yul Brynner killer-cowboy robot role, but it seems like actor Rodrigo Santoro was tapped for that part—and online production rumors suggest The Man in Black is actually a human character who sadistically abuses the androids. Harris will soon be seen the feature film Run All Night, starring opposite Liam Neeson and Joel Kinnaman. Harris won a Golden Globe and was nominated for an Emmy for his work in HBO’s Game Change. |

That episode was amazing. The door Bernard didn't see wasn't there until Theresa entered the room.

The original board member may already be dead, or some old hag in an ivory tower somewhere on life support while they perfect the technology. |

I don't think any of the board members are hosts because I don't think that's Ford's plan -at least at the point where the Theresa/Charlotte plot is at if you assume there are multiple timelines at play.
People gloss over the fact Hector was tied up in Charlotte's room when she said "blood sacrifice" and hence why Ford said that to twist the knife into Theresa.

Any board member that comes into the park, he can kill and send back a robot in it's place. He can then essentially manipulate the board, or at least a good part of it.

If that's the case, then wouldn't he just say that he actually controls the board when confronting Theresa instead of saying that they enjoy "testing" him every now and then?

I think that's been his plan from the beginning. Replace every rich person who enters the park with an exact duplicate until he controls the whole infrastructure of the world. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Last week, we finally had the pleasure of meeting Charlotte Hale on Westworld, the enigmatic character played by Creed actress (and future Thor: Ragnarok star) Tessa Thompson. At first glance, she appeared to be an excitable guest at the park, decompressing at Westworld's luxurious resort before returning to the real world. Then she was revealed to actually be the representative mentioned earlier by Dr. Ford, the Executive Director of the Delos board sent to investigate the various goings-on at the park. This week, Charlotte proved herself to be a worthy foe when she made a bold move against Ford himself.

From wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Board_of_directors Inside director An inside director is a director who is also an employee, officer, chief executive, major shareholder, or someone similarly connected to the organization. Inside directors represent the interests of the entity's stakeholders, and often have special knowledge of its inner workings, its financial or market position, and so on. Typical inside directors are:
