Having dropped some first-look images this week, Amazon Studios has unsealed the Vault and unleashed the official trailer for its hotly-anticipated live-action series adaptation of Bethesda’s acclaimed video game franchise Fallout.
Taking place in an alternate post-apocalyptic future, the series hails from Westworld’s Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan and stars Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets) as a young woman who is forced to leave her subterranean safety as she embarks on a perilous mission across a Nuclear war-ravaged future Earth. Take a look at the trailer below, along with four posters…
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. 200 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.
Featuring in the cast of Fallout are Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets), Walton Goggins (Justified), Aaron Moten (Emancipation), Moisés Arias (The King of Staten Island), Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks), Sarita Choudhury (Homeland), Michael Emerson (Person of Interest), Leslie Uggams (Deadpool), Frances Turner (The Boys), Dave Register (Heightened), Zach Cherry (Severance), Johnny Pemberton (Ant-Man), Rodrigo Luzzi (Dead Ringers), Annabel O’Hagan (Law & Order: SVU) and Xelia Mendes-Jones (The Wheel of Time).
Fallout is set to premiere on Prime Video on April 12th.
