The Fallout TV series from Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, the duo best known for co-creating Westworld, will reportedly enter production in 2022.
A report by Deadline states that the series from Kilter Films and Amazon Studios is finally coming together. Nolan will direct Fallout’s first episode while simultaneously taking on producer duties with Lisa Joy. Showrunners include Geneva Robertson-Dworet of Captain Marvel fame and Graham Wagner, one of the minds behind Silicon Valley. Talk about an all-star line-up.
Bethesda’s own Todd Howard and James Altman will be among the executive producers on the series as well. So there’ll be some oversight from the people who hand in Fallout 3 and Fallout 4’s creation. Hopefully, that means it’ll end up as one of the better video game adaptations.
Back in 2020, when Amazon Studios secured the license to Fallout, a teaser for the show dropped on Twitter which you can check out below.

Amazon Studios and Kilter Films don’t have an exact production start date yet, though everyone involved insists it’ll happen this year. In nothing else, the series will probably be out long before Fallout 5 ever is, as Bethesda is still busing working on Starfield.
