Fallout TV Show's 2nd Season Starts Filming Next Month
Fallout S2 Full Cast Yet To Be Confirmed
The second season of Amazon Prime's live-action adaptation of Fallout starts filming soon, as confirmed by returning star Leslie Uggams (Betty Pearson). Speaking to Screen Rant, Uggams said that filming of Fallout S2 starts next month in November. The news comes after the successful premiere of the show several months ago, which has prompted its renewal for a second season.
Fallout S2 is expected to continually explore the narrative around Vault-Tec, as well as the cliffhanger of S1, according to Screen Rant in its report. Apart from Uggams, the full returning cast of the show has not been confirmed yet, but it is assumed that lead actors Ella Purnell (Lucy MacLean) and Walton Goggins (Cooper "The Ghoul" Howard) are reprising their roles. While Uggams did not disclose much regarding next season's plot, she did tease that Betty Pearson, an executive assistant at Vault-Tec, will have some surprises in store for fans. "I am with the Vault People, so I didn’t get to see what the Earth people were doing," Uggams said. "So when it came on, I was blown away. But Betty’s got some things up her sleeve. Just stay tuned."
Moreover, the release date of Fallout S2 has been estimated to premiere sometime around 2026, taking into account post-production editing on top of the filming time period. Though, do note that an official release date has not been announced yet. To provide further context, Fallout S1 was filmed around July 2022 and eventually premiered in April this year.
