What is Fallout all about? Synopsis and trailer explored

Adapted from a futuristic video game, the Prime Video series is set in post-apocalyptic America. The official synopsis of the series is as follows:

“Fallout is the story of haves and have-nots in a world in which there’s almost nothing left to have. Two-hundred years after the apocalypse, the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters are forced to return to the irradiated hellscape their ancestors left behind—and are shocked to discover an incredibly complex, gleefully weird, and highly violent universe waiting for them.”

Amazon has also launched a trailer for the series, which you can watch below.

Showstar Kyle MacLachlan, who plays Vault 33 overseer Hank McLean in the series, has commented on the series,

“The people that play the video games that are real fans are both excited and somewhat hesitant, I think, because they’ve been burned before. But as we’ve been progressively getting into more press about it, as more of the teasers have come out, I find that the tone is shifting from one of ‘Oh, I hope I don’t mess it up’ to one of ‘Oh, I’m so excited. I think this looks pretty great.’”

Fallout is executive produced by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, who also hails Westworld. They are joined by co-creators, writers, co-showrunners, and executive producers, Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner. Nolan has also directed the first three episodes of the series. It is produced by Amazon MGM Studios and Kilter Films in association with Bethesda Game Studios and Bethesda Softworks.
