Ella Purnell (Army of the Dead, Yellowjackets), Aaron Moten (Disjointed), Xelia Mendes-Jones (Havoc), and Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks) are also part of the series.
The Fallout video game franchise began back in 1997. Since its inception, it has changed hands quite a few times, launched numerous games, and eventually an Amazon Prime Video streaming series.
Fallout was first created by Interplay Entertainment and was set in post-apocalyptic times. The idea for Fallout came from Interplay’s 1988 title Wasteland. They wanted to continue on with the Wasteland setting but the publisher of Wasteland, Electronic Arts, wouldn’t give them the rights back. So Interplay took it in a different direction. Hence, Fallout.
It was a hit, as evidenced by the nine titles in the Fallout series that followed. They include Fallout 2, Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel, Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout 4, Fallout Shelter, Fallout Pinball, and Fallout 76.
