One of the showrunners of the Fallout TV series, Graham Wagner, had an interview with Total Film talking about the adaptation. When he was asked about more seasons of the show, he replied, “But we feel we’ve barely scratched the surface of the Fallout universe.” He is very eager to make more content about this franchise. 

He added that he has a pile of documents with content to adapt and introduce in the new series. Fans of the games are very excited about this adaptation; the trailers seem to have shown a well-made product.

This Fallout adaptation will premiere on Amazon Prime Video on April 12. Some main cast members are Ella Purnell, Walton Goggins, Moises Arias, and Kyle MacLachlan. The first Fallout game was released in 1997 as a role-playing, point-and-click kind of game. By the third entry of the franchise, the game went third and first-person mutating into one of the most praised games of all time.

More TV and movie adaptations of videogames are being developed, like the second season of The Last of Us, a third movie of Sonic: The Hedgehog, a new Mortal Kombat movie, a Ghost of Tsushima movie, a Death Stranding movie, a Borderlands movie, and many more. Companies are eager to make some new games go transmedia.

I'm a big fan of movies and videogames in general. I really love Pokémon and Godzilla. One of my favorite games is The Last of Us, Part II. A compelling and well-written story is always welcome.
