It sounds as if Walton Goggins is really pleased with what he's read and recorded so far on season 2 of Prime Video's Fallout.
The video game adaptation premiered last April and surprised audiences and critics alike as it went on to become one of 2024's best new television shows.
Filming on season 2 kicked off back in November but was disrupted by the Los Angeles wildfires.
Recently, Complex caught up with Goggins, who had some comments that should surely have fans excited for season 2.
"We're deep into season 2 of Fallout. Now that people understand what the world is, this story just takes it to a whole nother level. I've been around a long time and usually, a show that people are attracted to, with that license, the second season really starts cooking, right? That's when some real magic can happen. And we're deep into season 2. It say a lot about a lot- it stays in the lanes of the tone that was set but then veers outside of them in the most interesting ways."
Season 2 of Fallout was officially greenlit back in April 2024, just a few days after the season 1 premiere.
In reaction to the season 2 renewal, executive producers Nolan and Lisa Joy stated, "Praise be to our insanely brilliant showrunners, Geneva [Robertson-Dworet] and Graham [Wagner], to our kick-ass cast, to Todd and James and all the legends at Bethesda, and to Jen, Vernon and the amazing team at Amazon for their incredible support of this show. We can’t wait to blow up the world all over again."
Amazon's Fallout series premiered on April 11 with all 8 episodes dropping on the same day.
Nolan and his wife, Lisa Joy developed the series for Amazon, hiring Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner to serve as co-showrunners. Nolan directed the first three episodes of the show.
The adaptation stars Walton Goggins in the dual role of The Ghoul / Cooper Howard, alongside Ella Purnell as Lucy, Aaron Moten as Maximus, Kyle MacLachlan as Hank, Michael Emerson as Wilzig and Johnny Pemberton as Thaddeus.
Official Synopsis: 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. From executive producers Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, the creators of Westworld, starring Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten, Walton Goggins and more. All episodes arrive April 11 on Prime Video.
