Walton Goggins said season 2 of the video game show ‘blows it out of the water’. The acclaimed series is set in the year 2296, which is a full 15 years after the events of the video game Fallout: New Vegas. This means that a lot has changed in that time – and the show certainly doesn’t pull its punches with the revelations. In the show, Goggins plays the gunslinging bounty hunter The Ghoul, a former Hollywood actor who has been mutated by the radiation caused by the nuclear war.

Goggins added: “This blows it out of the water, what these writers have done and the artisans that have come together to tell this story. It’s really gonna be something. I can’t wait for people to see it. We’re working really hard to make that happen.”. Fallout was developed for television by Westworld showrunners Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy. Speaking to Vanity Fair in 2023, Nolan said that although the series is set in a dystopian future ravaged by nuclear war, its story will speak to contemporary political issues.
“The games are about the culture of division and haves and have-nots that, unfortunately, have only gotten more and more acute in this country and around the world over the last decades,” said Nolan. “We get to talk about that in a wonderful, speculative-fiction way,” he continued. “I think we’re all looking at the world and going, ‘God, things seem to be heading in a very, very frightening direction.’”.
