Prime Video brings the popular Fallout video games to the world of live action with their upcoming television series “Fallout,” set to premiere on April 12, 2024.
Watch the official trailer for Prime Video’s “Fallout” TV series below, which ushers you into a wacky world filled with monsters, mutants, bloody violence and big ass explosions!
Vanity Fair details the series, “A nuclear war breaks out across Earth in the year 2077—an era of robots, hover cars, and a deep and abiding nostalgia for the America of the 1940s. After the incendiary mushroom clouds, the story flashes forward 219 years. How did humanity fair over those blighted two centuries? Lucy (played by Yellowjackets star Ella Purnell) has no clue. She has lived her entire life inside a subterranean vault, where every need and want has been satisfied while generations and generations await the day when it is safe to surface.”
“When a crisis forces Lucy to venture above on a rescue mission, she finds that the planet above remains a hellscape crawling with giant insects, voracious mutant animal abominations, and a human population of sunbaked miscreants,” Vanity Fair continues.
The “Fallout” TV series comes from Amazon Studios, Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy’s Kilter Films, and Bethesda Game Studios and Bethesda Softworks.
Jonathan Nolan will direct the show’s premiere episode. Showrunners for the series will be Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner.
Deadline had recently reported, “The world of Fallout is one where the future envisioned by Americans in the late 1940s explodes upon itself through a nuclear war in 2077. The magic of the Fallout world is the harshness of the wasteland set against the previous generation’s utopian idea of a better world through nuclear energy.”
“Fallout” stars Kyle MacLachlan (“Twin Peaks”), Xelia Mendes-Jones, Aaron Moten, Ella Purnell (“Yellowjackets”) and Walton Goggins (The Hateful Eight).
