“Time is the apex predator.”— Bud Askins
is a television series based on the video game series of the same name. It is set in the world of Fallout and is a new original story in the franchise, rather than a re-telling of any of the previous games. Licensed to Amazon Studios, the series was developed by Kilter Films, in association with Bethesda Game Studios and Bethesda Softworks. Executive producers include Jonathan Nolan, Lisa Joy, and Athena Wickham for Kilter Films, Todd Howard for Bethesda Game Studios, and James Altman for Bethesda Softworks.
entered production in mid-2022, with Jonathan Nolan directing the first three episodes, as well as Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner serving as showrunners. Production and filming for the series took place across New York, New Jersey, and Utah.
The series premiered on April 10, 2024. It has been renewed for an upcoming second season.
“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.”— Description,
is set in 2296, 219 years after the Great War of 2077, which killed the vast majority of humanity in a nuclear holocaust. It is also set 9 years after Fallout 4. It is heavily implied that Fallout begins near the end of 2296, as a terminal mentions it is 2297 by episode 5, and Lucy mentions while leaving Vault 4 she has only been on the surface for two weeks. During the Great War, some citizens of pre-War America managed to survive the war in Vaults, massive fallout shelters constructed by the Vault-Tec Corporation across the United States, and Fallout focuses on their descendants.
Lucy MacLean is a resident of one such Vault: Vault 33, located in the ruined city of Los Angeles. She has spent her life underground and is currently applying to have a husband from another Vault in an arranged marriage. After a tragic event involving a woman named Lee Moldaver, Lucy decides to leave for the surface on a mission to save her father Hank.
As she becomes accustomed to the dangers of the wasteland, she encounters other characters including Maximus, a young soldier in the Brotherhood of Steel, as well as the Ghoul, a ghoulified bounty hunter. The protagonists' paths converge as they chase an artifact from an enigmatic researcher nammed Siggi Wilzig which has the potential to reshape the power dynamic of the entire wasteland. Other perspectives include that of pre-War Hollywood star Cooper Howard, the man who became the Ghoul; as well as the continued story of Vault 33's dwellers after Lucy leaves on her journey, shown through the perspective of her brother Norm MacLean.

Early production
The idea for a TV series adaptation of Fallout were first discussed between Todd Howard and Jonathan Nolan in 2019. According to Nolan, Howard had rejected various TV adaptation offers in the past. Nolan had played Fallout 3 very extensively and was "very taken" with the Fallout setting. They found it easy to work together during their initial meeting and continued discussions over the coming months. The rights to the TV series adaptation of Fallout were purchased by Amazon in 2020 following months of negotiation. A teaser for the series was released on July 2, 2020, revealing Amazon and Kilter Films' involvement. Following the announcement, the Kilter team stated, "Fallout is one of the greatest game series of all time. Each chapter of this insanely imaginative story has cost us countless hours we could have spent with family and friends. So we're incredibly excited to partner with Todd Howard and the rest of the brilliant lunatics at Bethesda to bring this massive, subversive, and darkly funny universe to life with Amazon Studios." Albert Cheng, chief operating officer and co-head of television at Amazon Studios, said, "Fallout is an iconic global franchise, with legions of fans worldwide and a rich, deeply compelling storyline that powers it. And Jonah and Lisa are the perfect storytellers to bring this series to life. We’re thrilled to join with Bethesda to bring Fallout to television." Todd Howard stated that "over the last decade, we looked at many ways to bring Fallout to the screen, but it was clear from the moment I first spoke with Jonah and Lisa a few years ago, that they and the team at Kilter were the ones to do it right. We're enormous fans of their work and couldn't be more excited to work with them and Amazon Studios." In an August 2021 interview, Lisa Joy described the upcoming series as "a gonzo, crazy, funny, adventure, and mindfuck like none you’ve ever seen before. It’s pretty cool." In November 2021 Reddit AMA, Todd Howard confirmed that the series was still in motion, stating: "[It's] moving ahead. [I'm] really excited to be working with Jonah, Lisa, and Amazon on it." In January 2022, it was announced that screenwriters Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner would serve as showrunners for the series, which would be entering production that same year.
Direction
In an August 2020 interview, Bethesda design director Emil Pagliarulo stated that Bethesda set up lore information and guidelines for the series' writers, but afterward the writers "go off and do their things" as they are the experts. However, Howard also advised the showrunners to avoid certain elements that would be in Fallout 5. While players of the video games were kept in mind, another goal of the TV series would be to serve as a standalone way for newcomers unfamiliar or intimidated by video games to learn about what Fallout is about. Nolan also felt that the Fallout fanbase is very opinionated with different views and values, so much so he felt that certain fans would not like it anyway no matter what he did, commenting: “I don't think you really can set out to please the fans of anything, or please anyone other than yourself. I think you have to come into this trying to make the show that you want to make and trusting that, as fans of the game, we would find the pieces that were essential to us about the games and try to do the best version of those that we can. I think it's kind of a fool's errand to try to figure out how to make people happy in that way. You’ve got to make yourself happy. And I've made myself very happy with the show.”
Casting
Walton Goggins joined the cast in February 2022 in a lead role, portraying a ghoul character. Ella Purnell was cast in March. In June, Kyle MacLachlan, Xelia Mendes-Jones and Aaron Moten were announced as being part of the cast. An IMDb posting in September 2022 revealed the casting of Charlie Besso as "Tommy," in addition to Aaron Moten's character being named "Maximus." It also revealed the casting of Michael John Benzaia and Michael Emerson, the latter specifically by way of a stuntman.
The series' score was composed by Ramin Djawadi, who previously worked on Game of Thrones and Westworld. The first trailer for the series featured the song "I Don't Want to See Tomorrow" by Nat King Cole.
The Fallout show received generally positive reception, earning a 8.6 out of 10 based on over 100,000 votes on IMDb. It was Amazon Prime's most watched show since 2022's The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. The show had 65 million viewers globally over its first 16 days. 60% of the show's audience was from outside the United States, with outsized performance in the UK, France, and Brazil.
Timothy Cain, the creator of the original Fallout game, said he enjoyed the TV series.
•Despite concerns about the ending of the TV series, Emil Pagliarulo stated that Fallout: New Vegas is still canon, saying, "Of course it is." This was caused by a chalkboard in the show which some viewers misinterpreted that Shady Sands was nuked before the events of New Vegas in 2277. However, a week after the show was released, Todd Howard mentioned Shady Sands was nuked after Fallout: New Vegas, erasing lore discrepancies.
•Joshua Sawyer, the lead designer of New Vegas, said he doesn't care what the show does with New Vegas lore, feeling he does not own any of it, and simply views himself as a guest who worked on a project owned by something else (i.e. Bethesda). He mentioned he "doesn't get attached" to the lore like some fans of the game do, and thinks people can get too invested over fiction in an unhealthy way.
•Fallout 76 has allowed players to download a free Vault 33 jumpsuit underarmor to promote the TV series. It was originally available between December 2-12, 2023, and was again made available from April 9 - May 2024. The Ghoul's outfit was released on April 11, 2024, as a Fallout 1st exclusive, while Lucy's backpack was also relesed in-game.
•The Fallout SPECIAL Anthology was released on April 11, 2024 (one day after the TV show's premiere), as a collection of seven of the main Fallout games. It was announced on February 19, 2024, in anticipation of the TV show's release, with pre-orders opening the same day.
•Calling the Vault-Tec phone number in the show will result in audio of a man screaming as if he is being tortured.
•The naming convention for the series' episodes, in which the titles are a relevant word preceded by "The" (such as "The Head"), is similar to the naming of the quests in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Lonesome Road. The End is the final quest in Lonesome Road, while "The End" is the first episode of the TV series.
