Prime Video Brings First Teaser With New, Clear Footage Of 'Fallout' Series

Everyone’s at vault in this absolute wasteland! Chris Parnell is here!

Prime Video brought quite a bit to CCXP in Brazil this weekend, including the season 4 trailer for The Boys and a season 3 renewal for Reacher before season 2 premieres. But biggest of all, they showed off the teaser trailer for their Fallout series, adapting the popular video games.

The series takes place in a post-apocalyptic future Los Angeles in the wake of nuclear annihilation. The people are forced into underground bunkers to protect themselves from radiation, mutants and bandits. It stars Star Trek: Prodigy’s Ella Purnell as Lucy, a resident of Vault 33 who emerges and must fend off the dangers she will face. Kyle MacLachlan, best known for Twin Peaks and Desperate Housewives is Hank, her father and the Overseer of the vault. Walton Goggins, lately of The Righteous Gemstones and The Unicorn plays the mysterious mutated bounty hunter Ghoul, very much looking like a desaturated Red Skull…as a cowboy. Alrighty then. Aaron Moten plays Maximus, a soldier in the Brotherhood of Steel. One of them seem to get eaten by a mutant. The trailer showcases a rebellion within a vault, a Vault Dweller with a single eye, gigantic cockroaches, a deformed grizzly bear, a gnarly monster with a mouth containing hundreds of wiggly fingers, and of course a nuclear blast with ensuing destruction.

Michael Emerson, known for Lost, Person of Interest, and Evil, plays Wilzig, who warns Lucy as they meet that if she wants to stay, she’ll have to adapt, as something gets its food nearby. Zach Cherry’s role hasn’t been revealed yet, but he’s seen and he’ll be recognized from his appearances in Spider-Man: Homecoming and Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Chris Parnell, whose character also hasn’t been revealed yet but seems like an authority figure, does a spit take. The character’s mutation is that he has a single eye, which looked nearly covered by forehead skin at first glance.

Fallout was developed and written by Westworld’s Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan who executive produce as part of Kilter Films on their Amazon overall deal. Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner serve as executive producers with them, as well as as writers and co-showrunners. Kilter Films’s Athena Wickham also executive produces along with Todd Howard for Bethesda Game Studios and James Altman for Bethesda Softworks. Amazon and Kilter Films produce in association with the Bethesda companies. Nolan directed the first three episodes.
