Developed by Westworld creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, along with showrunners Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner, Fallout is based on the popular video game series that debuted in 1997 and is set two hundred years after a nuclear apocalypse, with survivors emerging from their fallout shelters to “discover an incredibly complex, gleefully weird, and highly violent universe waiting for them,” per the official description.

Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets) stars as Lucy, a survivor whose “peaceful and idealistic nature is tested when she is forced to the surface to rescue her father.” Aaron Moten (Disjointed) plays Maximus, “a young soldier who rises to the rank of squire in the militaristic faction called Brotherhood of Steel,” and Justified veteran Goggins plays The Ghoul, “a morally ambiguous bounty hunter who holds within him a 200-year history of the post-nuclear world.” (Check out our video Q&A with Goggins here.)
