In a world where projects based on video games are treated with scrutiny and often discarded by fans as garbage, Fallout has been faring well. Being hailed as one of the best video game adaptations of all time, the Prime Video series is decent enough and does justice to the source material.
Not only does it maintain the aesthetics of the game, but its world-building and extra elements only add to the viewer’s experience. Yet it is also its amazing cast that allows the series to be as unhinged as it is. Although there hasn’t been an official announcement, fans can hardly wait for Fallout season 2, and Jonathan Nolan might have just found the perfect actor to potentially cast in the next season.
Jonathan Nolan Might Cast This Breaking Bad Icon in Fallout S2
Fallout isn’t just great but is being considered by fans as one of the best video game adaptations in a while. Created by Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet, the series is based on the post-apocalyptic role-playing video game franchise of the same name. Not only is the show aesthetically pleasing, but its amazing cast in the form of Ella Purnell and Walton Goggins has helped make the world more intriguing.
While fans are eagerly waiting for Season 2, which hasn’t been announced yet, executive producer Jonathan Nolan teased in a new interview that Breaking Bad star Aaron Paul might show up in the next season. While talking to IGN, Nolan was asked if any celebrity friends of his had reached out to him and he stated,
“Aaron Paul. Yeah, Aaron Paul was at the premiere, a human being I love so much. And he was very polite. He was very enthusiastic about the show. There was sort of an unspoken kind of like, ‘What’s up, man?'”
Although he did not really mention that Paul is keen on joining season two of Fallout, his interest in the series alone has sparked fans to think that the Breaking Bad icon might be in season 2.
Fans React to Aaron Paul Potentially Joining Fallout S2
Jonathan Nolan did not confirm if a season two is on the way, but the EP did sound hopeful about it. While he also mentioned how Aaron Paul is a fan of the series and video game, he did not really confirm if Paul would be joining a potential season two of Fallout.
Nonetheless, the mention of the Breaking Bad icon being a fan of the series has made several netizens claim that the actor might be looking to be involved in season two. And since he is already a good pal of Nolan, having worked with him in Westworld, the possibility of Paul joining is just too exciting for fans.
As the news went viral, this is what fans of the video game franchise had to say about it:
