‘Fallout’ Season 2 Trailer Reveals New Vegas, Premiere Date and a Sinister Justin Theroux

Prime Video has revealed the first trailer for Fallout season two, along with the premiere date for the new episodes.

The new season of Fallout, Prime Video says, “will pick up in the aftermath of the first season finale in taking audiences on a journey through the wasteland of the Mojave to the post-apocalyptic city of New Vegas.”

The footage (below) was revealed at gaming convention Gamescom and teases a significant flashback storyline showing how the devastating nuclear war began. Also, a new character, Robert House, played by Justin Theroux is introduced. In addition, the trailer gives a first look at one of the Fallout universe’s most anticipated post-apocalyptic predators: the Deathclaw.

Fallout stars Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets), Aaron Moten (Emancipation), Walton Goggins (The White Lotus) and Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks) as survivors wandering the landscape of a retro-futurism post-apocalyptic America. Based on the blockbuster video game franchise, the show’s first season was a big success for Prime Video, ranking among the service’s top three most-watched original titles of all time. The second season will premiere Dec. 17 on Prime Video.

The debut season concluded with the villainous Hank MacLean (MacLachlan) escaping amid the battle between the Brotherhood of Steel and Moldaver’s New California Republic raiders, while Lucy (Purnell) and The Ghoul (Goggins) forged an uneasy partnership as they trekked towards New Vegas — a popular location in the video game franchise.

Fallout is from showrunners Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner, along with executive producers Jonathan Nolan, Lisa Joy, Athena Wickham, Todd Howard, and James Altman.
