Fallout Full Series Streaming Now on Prime Video

Amazon Studios’ live-action adaptation of the popular Fallout video game franchise has arrived on screens, bringing to life a post-apocalyptic world filled with action, adventure, and intrigue. Set in a future where nuclear decimation has ravaged Los Angeles, the series follows a group of survivors navigating a harsh and unforgiving landscape.

The show is created by Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan, known for their work on Westworld, and executive produced by Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner. With eight episodes in its first season, Fallout wastes no time in immersing viewers in a world where citizens must take refuge in underground bunkers, known as Vaults, to protect themselves from radiation, mutants, and bandits.

The story centres on Lucy MacLean, played by Ella Purnell, a young woman who ventures out of the safety of her Vault into the dangerous Wasteland. Through her eyes, we see a world that is both fascinating and terrifying. As she sets out to find her missing father, played by Kyle MacLachlan, Lucy encounters mutated creatures, violent factions, and the harsh realities of life on the surface.

The show also features Walton Goggins as Cooper Howard, a mutated gunslinger and bounty hunter known as The Ghoul, who has survived since before the nuclear bombs fell. Goggins delivers a standout performance, bringing a touch of dark humour to his character. Other notable cast members include Aaron Moten as Maximus, a soldier in the Brotherhood of Steel, and Moisés Arias as Norm MacLean, Lucy’s brother.

Fallout is more than just a faithful adaptation of the video games; it is a compelling narrative in its own right. The series strikes a balance between gritty action and dark humour, with unexpected comedic moments providing a much-needed respite from the relentless violence. The show also excels in world-building, paying close attention to detail and creating an immersive experience for viewers.

With a mix of strong performances, well-crafted humour, and a fresh take on the post-apocalyptic genre, Fallout is likely to score big with critics and audiences alike.

The entire season is available for streaming on Amazon Prime Video as of April 11, 2024.
