Marshawn Lynch has traded his spot on the field for a spot on the screen, appearing in the trailer for Season 3 of HBO’s Westworld on Thursday.
“Beast Mode” Lynch can be seen around the 55-second mark of the trailer, standing behind actor Aaron Paul while the two walk down a dimly lit hallway. An HBO spokesperson told ESPN that Lynch has a “fun and pretty substantial” role.
