Fallout TV Series Gets New Release Date on Prime Video
The wait is almost over for fans of the popular videogame series, Fallout. Prime Video has announced an earlier release date for its forthcoming adaptation, and we can’t wait to dive into the post-apocalyptic world of California.
New Release Date Announced Prime Video has pushed forward the release date of the eight-episode series, which will now drop on 10 April at 6pm PT. The show, based on Interplay Entertainment’s extensive role-playing game series, promises to bring the beloved game to life in a whole new way.
The Story Unfolds The series follows Lucy Walton, an idealistic vault-dweller who leaves the safety of her nuclear bunker-based society to embark on an adventure through the ruined wastelands of post-apocalypse California. The official logline reads, “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.”
Meet the Cast The show boasts an impressive cast, including Yellowjackets’ Ella Purnell as Lucy Walton, Walter Goggins as The Ghoul, a mutant bounty hunter with unknown motives and a mysterious pre-apocalypse past. Fans of the Fallout games will recognise the ghouls as the wasteland’s necrotic subclass of irradiated humans, and the TV series faithfully recreates their horrific, cadaver-like appearance.
Other stars include Aaron Moten as Maximus, a member of the Brotherhood of Steel, the fascist, pseudo-religious paramilitary order tasked with keeping a semblance of stability and peace in what’s left of California. Kyle McLachlan (Twin Peaks) plays Hank, the protagonist’s father and the leader of Vault 33, the vast 1950s-styled subterranean bunker in which Lucy’s community has lived happily for hundreds of years following the nuclear war.
