The release of Prime Video’s hugely-anticipated Fallout show is fast approaching, with the full series set to drop next week on April 11th (don’t forget to enter our giveaway of two double passes to the Sydney premiere!)
That means we’re starting to see more and more from the show as the marketing train picks up steam, and one new bit of watching for eager fans is a special “The World Of Fallout” featurette on the official Prime Video YouTube channel.
The three-minute video features the executive production team of director Jonathan Nolan (Westworld) as well as showrunners Geneva Robertson-Dworet (Captain Marvel) and Graham Wagner (Silicon Valley) speaking to the show’s inception and the goal of creating an original story within a universe that’s endured and been touched by a huge number of creators since the first game in 1997.
The show’s main cast, which includes lead Ella Purnell as well as Walton Goggins, Aaron Moten and Kyle MacLachlan sharing what they love about their respective characters in the series and the world that’s been brought to life.
You can watch it below:
Set in Los Angeles a whole 200 years after a nuclear apocalypse, Fallout will follow Lucy (played by Ella Purnell) as she steps out of Vault 33 into the unknown and unhinged world above. The trailer gives us a good look at life both in the vault and above the surface, as well as the packed cast of eccentric characters played by the likes of Walton Goggins, Kyle MacLachlan, Michael Emerson and more.
“Based on one of the greatest video game series of all time, Fallout is the story of haves and have-nots in a world in which there’s almost nothing left to have,” the trailer’s description reads.
“200 years after the apocalypse, the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters are forced to return to the irradiated hellscape their ancestors left behind — and are shocked to discover an incredibly complex, gleefully weird and highly violent universe waiting for them.”
