Filming for the second season of Amazon Prime's live-action Fallout adaptation begins this November, following the April premiere of the first season. Leslie Uggams, reprising her role as Betty Pearson, confirmed the news to Screen Rant. While the full cast hasn't been officially announced, Ella Purnell (Lucy MacLean) and Walton Goggins (Cooper "The Ghoul" Howard) are expected to return. Uggams hinted at exciting developments for her character, promising surprises for fans. A 2026 release is speculated, mirroring the production timeline of season one (July 2022 filming, April 2024 premiere). However, an official release date remains unconfirmed.
The narrative will reportedly expand on the season one cliffhanger and explore the Vault-Tec storyline further. Producer Graham Wagner revealed a significant plot point: the series is "Vegas-bound," introducing Robert House, the antagonist from Fallout: New Vegas, a character briefly seen in a season one flashback. The showrunners plan to delve deeper into untold stories, expanding on pivotal moments and exploring the origins of the Great War through flashbacks and character development. Further details regarding the extent of House's involvement and other plot specifics remain under wraps.
