The second season of American post-apocalyptic drama television series Fallout is set to premiere on December 17 on Amazon Prime Video, with a scheduled release running weekly until February 4.
Based on the namesake role-playing video game franchise, the series is set two centuries after the Great War of 2077, in which society has collapsed following an apocalyptic nuclear exchange between the United States and China.
It stars Ella Purnell as Lucy MacLean, who leaves her home in Vault 33 to venture into the dangerous wasteland of a devastated Los Angeles to look for her father, who has been kidnapped by wasteland raiders.
Along the way, she meets a Brotherhood of Steel squire Maximus (Aaron Moten) and a legendary ghoul bounty hunter Cooper Howard (Walton Goggins), each having his own past and agenda to settle.
In the second season, Lucy accompanies Cooper to New Vegas to discover the truth about her father and Vault-Tec while Maximus prepares for war.
Bethesda Game Studios executive producer Todd Howard, who also directed the third and fourth games of the franchise, revealed that he was sold on executive producer Jonathan Nolan’s series pitch because it wasn’t an exact adaptation. Instead, it is a whole new story set nine years after the events of Fallout 4.
As for the new season, Todd promises fans of the game that an incredible set was built for the upcoming episodes.
“The scale of New Vegas as a proper set is incredible, it’s a location that gamers know,” he said, referring to the game Fallout: New Vegas.
