Thandie Newton on the new season of 'Westworld'

Emmy-winning actress Thandie Newton, who plays Maeve on the HBO series "Westworld," joins "CBS This Morning" from her home to talk about the upcoming season and how the complex reality of the show could be an escape from the reality of the coronavirus pandemic's new normal.

The people hating on her are so pathetic. She's a successful actress and you are...what?

[Elfangel]

I wish they gave more time, i really dislike when they have to cut interviews off like this.

[AB-triy]

The last interviewer got a more indepth answer than expected, obviously, unaware of Thandies high intellect. He restricted her answer on equal pay to 1 minute.

Why would they cut off my queen like that. Stupid show

[devoleno]

Maeve refuses to play the game.... I love it!

[VEGANSAM]

They should've given all the women a check for the difference in pay from all the past years, with interest, & a HUGE letter of apology for being sexist bustards until now!

Well this was a train wreck of an interview. I feel bad for Thandie to go through it, but she handled it with class.

[crooklynbully]

Why does this have more dislikes than likes? What am I missing here?

[louiekim]

Ugh, I’m so done with the Thandie Newton haters. Get a life

[issiewizzie]

Thats what you get with commercial television

[tierneyirizarry]

Did she say "my favorite son"?

[gabbywest]

Awwe, how sweet that Thandie 'I don't want Black people anywhere near me in real life' Newton decided to put up 'Black' pictures in camera view behind her. She's absolutely not disgustingly fake at all.

[frenchydiceonia]

The second the camera cut all the black paintings on the wall behind her came down and her normal white ones went right back up.

[TheCptncrunchify]

Your "favorite son"? That's cold

[StephanieLWJ]

The interviewers faces... The awkward pauses...😂😅😭 Even they couldn't believe the lack of depth and the stupid answers.

[vanlln]

omg, can you get a more staged background than the b.s. black pics behind you thandie? Surprised she wasn't wearing a dashiki as the cherry on top.

[StephanieLWJ]

This was DRIEST, most dull, inarticulate and uncomfortable interview I've seen in a long. She has no depth and no thought or understanding of the character she plays. How entirely disappointing to have this in such a dynamic and profound role! How distasteful and disappointing!

[cluvehail]

Yay, an interview with some no name D-lister!
