Ella Purnell is Playing New Vegas to Prepare for Fallout Season Two

As a dedicated Fallout enthusiast who’s been following Ella Purnell‘s journey since her debut as Lucy MacLean, it’s a thrill to see our favorite actress immerse herself in the world of New Vegas. It’s not every day you get to witness an Emmy Award-winning star preparing for a role by delving into one of the best video games ever made!

Ella Purnell, star of the Fallout TV series that premiered on Prime Video this year, is diving deep into the original content as she prepares for the show’s upcoming second season. In her role as Lucy MacLean during the first season’s release in April, Purnell shared the screen with Walton Goggins and Aaron Moten, contributing to the creation of the post-apocalyptic world that won an Emmy Award.

Through a series of online posts, Purnell disclosed that she has been directed to play Fallout: New Vegas in preparation for a potential upcoming project.

Back to the Wasteland

In April 2024, Fallout made its debut with an extremely favorable response, becoming one of Prime’s most successful launches to date. The game led to a significant increase in player numbers, from Fallout 4 to the online version, Fallout 76. Essentially, it was a revival for the series, and during that time, Fallout fever swept through fans everywhere.

On Bluesky, Ella Purnell shared that she’s getting ready for the upcoming second season of the show by playing Fallout: New Vegas on Xbox. If her post is an indicator, it seems like the filming might have been pushed back from its November start date.

As a devoted fan, I followed Purnell’s initial steps into the game and, on a whim, decided to head north through Quarry Junction. Several hours deep, I began to realize the error of my ways – a predicament that veterans of New Vegas would surely empathize with.

This morning, Purnell posted:

It seems there’s not enough time for me to fully digest all the source materials beforehand, but I’ll make sure to familiarize myself with the game before I get summoned to the wasteland.

Many believe that Fallout: New Vegas is the top game in the series, and it’s widely speculated that its world will serve as the backdrop for the second season, given the final scenes of the show’s inaugural season.
