Fallout fans, we’re heading back to the wasteland! And not just any part of the wasteland: New Vegas.
The setting of the fan-favorite game Fallout: New Vegas takes center stage in Fallout Season 2, after Hank MacLean (Kyle MacLachlan) fled there in the Season 1 finale. Now, his daughter Lucy (Ella Purnell) and her traveling companion the Ghoul (Walton Goggins) are hot on his trail. She hopes to bring her father to justice, while he seeks out his family, including his wife Barb (Frances Turner), who played a key role in Vault-Tec’s plan to kickstart the nuclear apocalypse.
Lucy and the Ghoul’s journey will bring them right into the heart of New Vegas, where they’ll encounter dangerous monsters and rival factions. Among them are the Kings, a group of Elvis impersonators who, in a departure from the game, are now Ghouls. Also in play is Mr. House (Justin Theroux), the ruler of New Vegas.
While Lucy and the Ghoul take on New Vegas, Maximus (Aaron Moten) and the Brotherhood of Steel prepare for an oncoming civil war. New cast member Kumail Nanjiani enters the fray here as a Brotherhood of Steel pilot looking to get in on the action.
Joining Najiani as a new member of the Fallout cast is Macaulay Culkin, who pops up ever so briefly in the trailer as a member of Caesar’s Legion. Between them, the Brotherhood, and Mr. House, it looks like our heroes sure have their hands full.

Fallout Season 2 premieres Dec. 17 on Prime Video, with a new episode every week.
