Actress Ella Purnell prepares for season 2 of Fallout. To this end, she reveals that she is playing the episode New Vegas to better understand the scenario.
Ella Purnell is an actress with a busy schedule. Its year 2024 was crowned with success between the — successful — adaptation of Fallout and the fantastic second season ofArcane (in which she lends her voice). She is obviously entitled to a little time off according to this Bluesky publication from November 29, 2024. Or almost.
« I was told to play New Vegas. As I love diving into research and it may or may not be related to a certain job, I may or may not be available soon », Says the actress. New Vegas is the name given to an episode of the Fallout saga, one of, if not the most appreciated by fans. Considering where future episodes of the series are expected to take us, it makes sense.
Ella Purnell performs in New Vegas to prepare for season 2 of Fallout
In any case, we can praise the involvement of Ella Purnell, who really wants to appropriate the universe and the — rich — scenario of Fallout: New Vegas before the filming of the series broadcast exclusively on Amazon Prime Video (by the way, it plays on an Xbox console, which constitutes good advertising for Microsoft). However, she indicates, in another message from December 1, that she may not have enough time to see everything.
« Obviously, time is not on my side to absorb all this original material. I will nevertheless immerse myself in the game until I am called to the Wasteland “, she confides. Her various comments sparked diverse and varied reactions, with some fans giving her, for example, advice to enjoy the adventure (or bad advice to troll her). “ The Fallout Community Would Explode If You Broadcast Your Game », even indicates an Internet user, when others tell him not to miss out on the DLC.
In case you didn't know, Fallout: New Vegas takes place a few years before the first season according to the official timeline — and it is indeed a canon episode, despite accusations of a possible inconsistency. It is no coincidence that Ella Purnell must play there: season 2 should go to New Vegas, where other dangers await the heroes. For the actress, playing the game beforehand is therefore the best way to prepare. We imagine that she is not the only member of the cast to comply with the exercise.
