Ella Purnell does not bother tackling online reactions to Fallout: ‘My job is to make this character real’ | Interview

For a long time, it was said that massive modern video games cannot be faithfully adapted to the screen. Many came close before The Last Of Us hit the nail right on the head. Jonathan Nolan’s Fallout followed in its footsteps and also earned acclaim. But even as the shows earned praise, many OG fans – the gamers – were not completely satisfied. However, for Fallout’s lead, Ella Purnell, those reactions are out of her control.

Fallout Review: Prime Video’s Violent Post-Apocalyptic Video Game Adaptation Is Surprisingly Human

Imagine a world where 219 years have passed since a horrific nuclear explosion and a select group of humans is now living inside safe and luxurious underground vaults — well-cultured havens where life is as dreamy as it can be. It’s like having a manual to living a simple life in tunnels — besides the oddity of having images of the real world being screened with a virtual projector. Outside these vaults, everything is bizarre, scary, risky, radiated, chaotic, gory and unpredictable — in short, the world is now an absolute nightmare. You can catch radiation illness, fall prey to giant cockroaches, be hunted down by mutated humans or forced to sell your teeth for money. Fasten your seatbelts, for this is just the beginning! Welcome to the fascinating universe of Prime Video’s Fallout, a post-apocalyptic show based on the popular video game series of the same name. Although it is set in the same universe, the show isn’t based on a particular game from the franchise; rather, it incorporates major themes and elements from …

Fallout review: Prime Video’s big-budget video game adaptation wants to be a Boys-level event, but feels too broad-strokes | Web-series News

They used to say that television storytelling lacks stakes; for instance, characters that were killed off in season two could find ways to return in season four. Death was no longer sacred. Remember Jon Snow? But the same theory could also apply to the television industry itself. No longer does a big-budget bomb like Citadel kill a network’s future plans. In fact, not only does Citadel return, but its failure encourages the production of equally expensive new projects. This week’s Fallout is hardly as irredeemable as that show, but it certainly points to where Prime Video wants to be as a leading programmer in the streaming age. Expansive and expensive, the eight-part series is based on the popular video game franchise of the same name, but seems to owe a far greater debt to post-apocalyptic cinema such as the Mad Max films and the recent Last of Us TV adaptation. Like that acclaimed HBO series, Fallout also features an epic quest across an apocalyptic wasteland, but this time, the central roles have been reversed. It …
