10 Upcoming Video Game Movie Adaptations You NEED To Be Excited For

10. Fallout

The post-apocalyptic wasteland of Fallout and its alternate spin on human history is rife for all kinds of storytelling. That’s why each game does its own thing, rather than being a more sequelised series of stories. As such, adding additional media into the world has the potential of giving us new Fallout stories that otherwise may never have been told.

Amazon Studios’ Fallout series began filming this summer. We know startlingly little about the show, for example if it is adapting any particular game or location or if any characters from the games will feature. Walter Goggins, Ella Purnell and Kyle MacLachlan will star but their roles are yet to be revealed. However, rather than look at this with a glass hall-empty perspective let’s focus on the positives.

Early set photos of Super Duper Mart in the wastelands of 2077 as well as staple of the series, a vault, give us an extremely promising early look into the accurate representation of the games. It’s impossible not to get a little delighted at how that world is set to be portrayed.

The show is being handled by Westworld creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, with Joy describing the series as :

“a gonzo, crazy, funny, adventure, and mindf*** like none you’ve ever seen before”.
