Fans have been waiting over a year for Westworld‘s second season, and now that’s it’s (almost) here, we want all the insider scoop.

So, according to showrunners Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, a number of the upcoming episodes will be supersized. Yes, that’s right … longer than your typical 60 minutes.

Talking with EW, Nolan said that “The second season the premiere is a little over 70 minutes. The fourth episode — which is one of my favorites — is a little longer than an hour. And the finale is just going to keep going and going — it’s a bit of an epic.”

Speaking of the fourth episode, it’s called “The Riddle of the Sphinx,” directed by Lisa Joy herself, and written by Gina Atwater & Jonathan Nolan. This episode reportedly will be the first time we meet Delos CEO James Delos, played by Peter Mullan.
