Who Is in the Fallout Cast?
The main cast of Fallout features Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten, Walton Goggins, Kyle MacLachlan, Moisés Arias and Frances Turner.
Ahead of the season 2 premiere, Walton spoke with Sharp Magazine about his willingness to continue Fallout.
“Whenever you come across an opportunity to collaborate with the likes of [producer] Jonathan Nolan or [co-showrunners] Geneva [Robertson-Dworet] or Graham [Wagner] and get to tell a story like this, you feel so privileged to say ‘Yes,’” the White Lotus star said. “After talking to them for the first time almost three years ago, I was just so taken with this story after reading the first two scripts. And here we are, having finished the second season of this very compelling, absurdist, comedic, dramatic tale, and I can’t believe I’m talking to you on the other side of having season two in the can.”
