If you want to say who the "No. 1 pit king" in the American drama circle is, then many American drama fans will definitely arrange Jonathan Nolan.
The American dramas produced by this guy are almost all big hits, but "they will all end badly", such as "Suspect Tracking" and "Westworld"...
Now, his new work "Fallout" is coming, and it will be officially launched on the 12th of this month!
Based on the post-apocalyptic game of the same name, Fallout shares a core worldview that at some point in the future, a nuclear war destroys civilization, leaving behind a world filled with radiation, ruins, and mutated creatures.
Judging from this setting alone, the adapted drama version completely follows the original.
The American drama version, like the game, is set in an alternate world, where world history and our real world parted ways after World War II.
In this parallel world, scientific and technological developments are mainly focused on the application of nuclear energy, leading to a range of social, political and environmental problems.
As resources were depleted, tensions between the nations of the world intensified, culminating in a deadly nuclear war in 2077...
This war led to the almost complete collapse of global civilization, directly returning humanity to the "Stone Age".
After nuclear war, the surviving humans and other creatures had to struggle to survive in a world overrun by radiation, ruins, and mutated creatures.
The world is known as the "Wasteland", the living environment in the wasteland is extremely harsh, resources are scarce, and the survivors either seek refuge in the ruins of the remaining cities, or join various factions and groups...
However, many shelters are actually places where "secret experiments are conducted", and the inhabitants of the shelters often become unwitting "test subjects"...
The above is the background story of the original work, and how to change the drama version will have to wait until it comes out.
However, just looking at the trailer of the drama version, it can be seen that the investment in this drama is very, very huge, and the special effects are not textured, they are all big scenes...
It's definitely a sci-fi blockbuster to look forward to!
But Nolan's new drama, do you still dare to chase it...
