Fallout has been renewed for a third season and announced that Season 2 will premiere later this year.
The Hollywood Reporter has reported that Fallout on Amazon Prime has been renewed for a third season and that Season 2 is coming this December. At an upfront presentation today :
“We are absolutely thrilled that our global Prime Video customers will be able to delve deeper into the wonderfully surreal and captivating world of Fallout,” Vernon Sanders, the Amazon MGM Studios Global Head of Television, said. “Jonah, Lisa, Geneva, and Graham have done an exceptional job bringing this beloved video game franchise to vivid life on Prime Video. Together with our amazing partners at Bethesda Games and Bethesda Softworks, we are delighted to announce a third season of Fallout, well ahead of the much-anticipated debut of season two.”
We reviewed the first season before it aired, stating:
Fallout is coming to Amazon Prime, with big names Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan as executive producers. I loved their work on Westworld (except maybe Season 3). For fans of the original isometric RPGs, the first-person titles, and those with no clue what the IP is, this show is fantastic. I have never watched an adaptation this dedicated to being faithful to the source material. From the looks to the sounds, and the feeling, Fallout’s first season nails it all.
The show begins by showcasing the day-to-day life of Vault 33. The McLane family, with patriarch and Vault Overseer Hank (played by Kyle McLachlan), are a seemingly perfect family helping run a perfect society. This is Fallout, and anyone who knows the IP is aware of the backstory surrounding VaulTec, RobCo, and all the nefarious near-do-well mega corporations of this alternate history. The show takes place in 2296 around Los Angeles. It has been 219 years since a Nuclear Apocalypse ravaged the face of the planet.
