Prime Video’s second season Fallout trailer delivers action and introduces new characters played by Kumail Nanjiani and Macaulay Culkin. A civil war is on the way and the Ghoul confesses, “I wastelanded for 200 years. I’ve kept myself alive for one reason—to find my family.”
Returning season one stars include Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets), Aaron Moten (Emancipation), Walton Goggins (The White Lotus), Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks), Moisés Arias (The King of Staten Island), and Frances Turner (The Boys).
The eight-episode season two will premiere on December 17, 2025. (Update: Prime Video upped the release date to December 16.)
“Based on one of the greatest video game series of all time, Fallout is the story of haves and have-nots in a world in which there’s almost nothing left to have,” reads Prime Video’s synopsis. “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.”
Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner created the series and serve as executive producers and showrunners. Additional executive producers include Jonathan Nolan, Lisa Joy, Athena Wickham, Todd Howard, James Altman, and Margot Lulick. The series is produced by Amazon MGM Studios and Kilter Films in association with Bethesda Game Studios and Bethesda Softworks.
