Amazon Studios has a show based on Bethesda's Fallout coming out in the future. The studio said it planned to kick off production later this year. We get a casting update for the video game adaptation. Actor Walton Goggins joins the cast in one of its lead roles. Amazon hasn't revealed what role he'll play, but reports claim he could play a ghoul. In Fallout parlance, this refers to someone who mutated due to radiation exposure from the nuclear war. 

The series was announced back in 2020, and it looks like things are finally picking up. Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy of Westworld fame are behind the production, with Nolan directing the pilot. Executive producers of the show include Bethesda's Todd Howard, the game director of Fallout 3 and Fallout 4.

Beyond that, the developer hasn't shared any details about what's coming next. All it said it fans should follow the studio for updates on the new game. The last major title came out in 2013, so a new series entry is definitely wanted. The company is still updating Grand Theft Auto V, so you can still enjoy playing that.
