After four seasons of Westworld, creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy are bringing another popular sci-fi IP to the big screen with Fallout, Bethesda’s long-running RPG series. Fallout is ripe for adaptation, with a well-realized retro-futuristic world full of fascinating locations, factions, and mutants, and plenty of dark comedy.

What is Fallout?
Fallout is a television adaptation of Bethesda’s popular series of post-apocalyptic role-playing video games. Here is the official synopsis on Amazon:
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. These disparate parties collide when chasing an artifact from an enigmatic researcher that has the potential to radically change the power dynamic in this world.
