Sci-fi: FALLOUT

Another big-budget dystopian extravaganza from the makers of this one being based on the Falloutcast includes Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets) and Kyle McLachlan as daughter and father residents of a fallout bunker who have spent their entire lives underground and have now found a reason to venture outside. Elsewhere, Walton Goggins (Justified) plays the Ghoul, a mutant immortal cowboy who’s been around since the bombs dropped. Based on trailers, gamers for once actually seem excited about an adaptation. See next week’s issue for an interview with show creator Jonathan Nolan.
