A New Fallout Clip Spotlights the Series’ Wild, Wild, Dystopian West
Having already dropped two trailers, the next move for Prime Video’s adaptation of the wildly popular Fallout games is to share an actual scene from an episode—and it’s picked an ideal one, showcasing the post-apocalyptic setting and dynamics between three key characters: Ella Purnell’s greenhorn-with-a-gun Lucy; Walton Goggins’ bounty hunter, the Ghoul; and a well-armed member of the Brotherhood of Steel.
It feels like these three sides are going to have a lot to reckon with as Fallout progresses. As Prime Video’s official description reads, “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. Two hundred 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.”
Along with Purnell and Goggins, Fallout stars Aaron Moten, Moisés Arias, Kyle MacLachlan, Sarita Choudhury, Michael Emerson, Leslie Uggams, Frances Turner, Dave Register, Zach Cherry, Johnny Pemberton, Rodrigo Luzzi, Annabel O’Hagan, and Xelia Mendes-Jones. It was created by Kilter Films and Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy (who know a thing or two about the weird frontier, having made Westworld). All eight episodes arrive April 11, worldwide on Prime Video.
