Prime Video Renews “Fallout” for Season 3
Strap on your power armor, because more “Fallout” is on the way. Prime Video has officially renewed the hit video game series for a Season 3, even before the premiere of Season 2 this December. Season 2 promises to continue the thrilling journey through the wasteland of the Mojave to the post-apocalyptic city of New Vegas, picking up after the epic finale of Season 1. With over 100 million viewers tuning in to Season 1, it has become one of the top three Prime Video titles of all time.
The adaptation of the popular post-apocalyptic gaming franchise made its debut in April 2024 and quickly became a fan favorite. The story follows protagonist Lucy MacLean, played by Ella Purnell, as she navigates a world devastated by nuclear war in search of her kidnapped father, Hank (Kyle Maclachlan). Along the way, she encounters a variety of terrifying creatures and characters, including Maximus (Aaron Moten), a rogue member of the Brotherhood of Steel, and the Ghoul (Walton Goggins), a deformed bounty hunter with a mysterious past.
In the Season 1 finale, shocking revelations unfold as Lucy and her brother Norm (Moises Arias) uncover their father’s role in the nuclear devastation, the Ghoul discovers a potential link to his pre-war family, and Maximus is promoted to a knight. As Lucy and the Ghoul set out to uncover the truth behind Vault-Tec, Hank ventures to New Vegas, setting the stage for an exciting new chapter in the series.
“We are thrilled to continue exploring the surreal and captivating world of ‘Fallout’ with our global Prime Video audience,” said Vernon Sanders, global head of television at Amazon MGM Studios. “The talented team behind the series has brought this beloved video game franchise to life in a remarkable way, and we are excited to announce a third season of ‘Fallout’ in anticipation of Season Two’s debut.”
“Fallout” has received critical acclaim, earning Emmy nominations for outstanding drama, lead actor in a drama for Walton Goggins, and outstanding writing. The show is produced by Kilter Films, with executive producers Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy at the helm. Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner, who also serve as creators and showrunners, round out the talented team behind the series.
