Prime Video has offered a first look at its upcoming television adaptation of the popular post-apocalyptic role-playing game Fallout.
At this time, the Amazon-owned streaming platform has shared nine first-look images from its live-action Fallout series, which is due to premiere in April. These include eight stills featuring characters like vault-dweller Lucy (Ella Purnell), Overseer Hank (Kyle MacLachlan), The Ghoul (Walton Goggins), and Maximus (Aaron Moten) — not to mention numerous members of the Brotherhood of Steel. There’s also a behind-the-scenes image showing Purnell alongside series co-developer and director Jonathan Nolan.

What is Prime Video’s Fallout series about?
Prime Video’s Fallout is based on the video game series of the same name, which began life at Interplay Productions/Black Isle Studios and now resides at Bethesda. The streaming series tells an original story set in the same universe as the games.
“Two-hundred 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,” an official synopsis reads.
The aforementioned Nolan developed the series alongside fellow Westworld creator Lisa Joy. Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner serve as showrunners. Bethesda Game Studios co-head Todd Howard — who directed the games Fallout 3 (2008) and Fallout 4 (2015) — serves as an executive producer.
In addition to Purnell, Goggins, MacLachlan, and Moten, Prime Video’s adaptation stars Xelia Mendes-Jones, Mike Doyle, Moisés Arias, Johnny Pemberton, Cherien Dabis, Dale Dickey, Matty Cardarople, Sarita Choudhury, Michael Emerson, Leslie Uggams, Frances Turner, Dave Register, Zach Cherry, Rodrigo Luzzi, and Annabel O’Hagan.
Fallout premieres April 12, 2024 on Prime Video.
