Prime Video Welcomes Us to the End of the World in First Full Trailer for Fallout

Welcome to the apocalypse, folks!

Prime Video has just released the first full trailer for their highly anticipated survivalist adaptation Fallout, based on the immensely popular videogame franchise of the same name. The series marks just the latest videogame to TV adaptation in recent years, from varying ends of the quality spectrum—for every The Last of Us, it seems there are at least five Twisted Metals.

According to a press release, “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. 

Ella Purnell is Lucy, an optimistic Vault-dweller with an all-American can-do spirit. Her peaceful and idealistic nature is tested when she is forced to the surface to rescue her father. Aaron Moten is Maximus, a young soldier who rises to the rank of squire in the militaristic faction called Brotherhood of Steel. He will do anything to further the Brotherhood’s goals of bringing law and order to the wasteland. Walton Goggins is the Ghoul, a morally ambiguous bounty hunter who holds within him a 200-year history of the post-nuclear world.”
