Summary
Falloutseason 2 executive producer Jonathan Nolan teases how the new episodes expand the world of the show and when filming is set to start. Based on the beloved video game franchise, Prime Video’sFalloutpremiered earlier this year, following Ella Purnell’s Lucy as she leaves the safety of her underground vault and embarks on a mission on the apocalyptic surface world. The show, which was created by Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner, was a hit critically and in terms of viewership, andFalloutseason 2is now confirmed to be on the way.
During a recent interview withTheWrap, Nolan is asked about how he’s approachingFalloutseason 2 after making season 1. In his answer, the executive producer reveals that season 2 will feature “more monsters, more environments, more factions,” suggesting a significant expansion of the world of the show. As for when filming will begin, Nolan hints that production isn’t far off. Check out his comment below:
We learned an awful lot about the characters and the way they interact and talk with each other and the exciting possibilities for different encounters between characters who maybe haven’t met each other yet. But we also figured out how to make all the monsters, and there aremore monsters, more environments, more factionsthat we are currently designing and building right now to begin production quite soon. So we’re really excited.
It’s the same feeling I had when “Batman Begins” went into the world. I had worked on that for a little while with my brother and then written the script for “The Dark Knight” for him. And I just thought, ‘We built this thing. Let’s see what it can do.’ And that’s the same feeling we have right now. We’ve built this thing, and in Season 2, we’re going to find out what it could do.

The positive response would suggest that the Prime Video series succeeded, and season 1’s laying of the groundwork will now allow for some bigger swings in season 2.

This new team is on a mission to find The Ghoul’s wife and daughter, who may still be alive, as well as other villainous Vault-Tec leaders. It’s Hank’s final scene, however, that features the most concrete hint regarding new elements to come, asMacLachlan’s character is seen heading toward New Vegas, a key location from the games.
The introduction of New Vegas means that some iconic characters from the video games are likely on the way as well, andRobert House, aka Mr. House, is confirmed to join theFalloutcast of characters in season 2. In the games, Mr. House serves as the mysterious leader of New Vegas, and he does make a brief cameo in season 1, as played by Rafi Silver.
