THERE is something wrong with the Nolan brothers. Christopher Nolan filmed Oppenheimer, an incredible film about the creation and first uses of the atom bomb in January 2022. Six months later, his brother Jonathan directed the first three episodes of Fallout, where atom bombs are dropped on every major American city.
Set in an alternate history, Earth is reduced into a radioactive wasteland after atomic bombs are detonated in 2077. Humans who were either resourceful or rich enough managed to buy their way into high-tech underground bunkers called Vaults.
Everyone else were either incinerated by the bombs or survived by sheer luck, only to then fight for survival against each other, the radioactive environment and creatures mutated by the nuclear fallout on the planet’s surface.
Amazon Prime Video’s Fallout is set within the premise, story and lore from the games, with its own story that weaves into the franchise’s grand retro-futuristic epic.
