The Prime Video hit is preparing its return. Building on its critical and audience success, the series inspired by Bethesda’s games hopes to return to the forefront very quickly. We must strike while the iron is hot, and not make spectators wait longer than necessary. An article from DeadlinHe reveals that filming has just been interrupted due to bad weather. We take stock of what we know about this new season and what we can expect in terms of plot and distribution.
Filming has started, but is experiencing a small setback
After a first season filmed in the state of New York, the teams set down their bags in California last November. Prime Video was able to benefit from a fairly attractive tax credit to motivate a change of scenery. Filming was to continue this week, after more than a month of shooting. While Amazon marked the end of the Christmas holidays this Wednesday, weather conditions caused a slight delay in the program. According to information from Deadlinethe powerful wind storm and the forest fires it sparked in California are pushing the firm to play the caution card.
The climatic event appeared Tuesday afternoon in southern California and is of concern to local authorities. If a return to normal is expected this Wednesday, winds between 80 and 130 km per hour were expected. For now, the actors and technicians who work on Fallout season 2 can hope return to service this Friday. This slight delay will probably not have any consequences on the release window of this new burst of episodes. We do not yet know the total duration of this filming phase, we can still expect it to take up a good part of 2025. Filming for season 1 lasted less than ten months.

Direction New Vegas !
Lucy, Maximus and the Ghoul still have work to do. After the slow build-up, the last episode of season 1 was an explosive finale. It was also the promise of seeing a little more country alongside the three heroes in search of answers. Vault Tec has not revealed all its secretsit should be about learning more about how the firm prepared the nuclear catastrophe that forced humanity to live underground. What role did these giants play in the escalation of violence? Who is really in charge? The next season should delve deeper into these questions and explain more broadly how different companies specializing in robotics, weapons and IT have plotted to eradicate part of humanity and create one “best”.
Lucy’s journey is also closely linked to this vast conspiracy, she discovered that her father was one of the bunker supervisors and that he was cryogenically frozen to ensure the smooth running of operations. The heroine will have to deal with these revelations, while continuing her journey alongside Coope.r. The Ghoul’s past should continue to be part of the storyhis wife was among the thinking heads of this apocalypse. Together, Lucy and Cooper walk towards a new city that the players know very well.
The skyline shown at the end of the episode left little room for doubt, it is indeed towards New Vegas that the characters are heading. The location is at the epicenter of a game released in 2010 on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Since the creators are not afraid to give free rein to their imagination, it seems quite unlikely that the series will borrow much from the course of the games . Some emblematic characters could still be on the trip, starting with Mr Housewhich we glimpsed (in its flesh-and-blood version) in the first season.
Who is in the casting?
To carry these new adventures, the series will summon the leading trio. Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten and Walton Goggins will once again lend their features to Lucy, Maximus and The Ghoul. We can also expect to find Moises Arias in the role of Norm MacLean and Kyle McLachlan to play his father. Additions are also to be expected, the series even offers an emblematic face of the 90s. According to DeadlineMacaulay Culkin has just been given a recurring role in season 2. Revealed by Mom, I missed the planethe actor made a return to the forefront in 2019 with the series Dollface or even The Righteous Gemstones on HBO. These appearances were nevertheless brief, he should benefit from greater room for maneuver here. He would have been entrusted with a “mad genius” score.
For the moment, we do not know precisely when season 2 of Fallout. We can still hope that with filming taking place this year, the appointment will be made later in 2026. If it took nine months to capture the first season, the teams are now moving forward on familiar ground and could accelerate the pace . Two years separate the vast majority of seasons of Prime Video productionsit should be the same for the series Fallout.
