“Fallout” will return for a second season after the series based on the popular video game was renewed by Amazon Prime Video just days after debuting…
There will be plenty more to explore in a post apocalyptic world when “Fallout” returns for season 2 on Amazon Prime Video.
The series based on the popular video game that just debuted on April 10 has already been renewed for a second season after being ranked among the three most watched series in Prime Video history and most watched season globally since the “Lord of the Rings” series “Rings of Power” first premiered.
“Holy shit. Thank you to Jonah, Kilter, Bethesda and Amazon for having the courage to make a show that gravely tackles all of society’s most serious problems these days — cannibalism, incest, jello cake. More to come!,” Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner, executive producers, creators, and co-showrunners, said in a statement.
Based on the best-selling video game series of the same name, “Fallout” centers around a 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.
“Yellowjackets” favorite Ella Purnell stars as Lucy — an optimistic Vault-dweller with an all-American can-do spirit. Her peaceful and idealistic nature is tested when she is forced to the surface to rescue her father. Aaron Moten is Maximus, a young soldier who rises to the rank of squire in the militaristic faction called the Brotherhood of Steel. He will do anything to further the Brotherhood’s goals of bringing law and order to the wasteland. Walton Goggins is the Ghoul, a morally ambiguous bounty hunter who holds within him a 200-year history of the post-nuclear world. These disparate parties collide when chasing an artifact from an enigmatic researcher that has the potential to radically change the power dynamic in this world.
The first season of “Fallout” has received rave reviews thus far and now there’s more to come with the show already renewed for season 2. Even before the series was officially renewed, the showrunners had talked about plans they had for the second season so it probably won’t take long for that vision to begin taking shape now that the series is officially returning for more episodes on Prime Video.
