In 2020, Amazon Studios licensed the rights to produce a television series based on Bethesda’s successful Fallout video game franchise.
Since then, updates on the new show have been few and far between.
But recently, video and images have started to make their way onto the internet.
First Peeks
In July, the public got its first look at the parking lot of a post-nuclear-holocaust Super Duper Mart, complete with weeds and rusted-out vehicles.
But like many productions, the set was not constructed at a movie studio.

A video posted in July to the El Bakon’s Sweet Spot YouTube channel revealed that the set was in a vacant store building in Staten Island, New York.
The building, a former ShopRite, sits at 2424 Hylan Blvd.
While some have speculated where the Super Duper Mart is in the show, producers have not yet revealed that detail.
A later video from ramblincoffee on TikTok showed a different set with building facades, vehicles, and even toilets.
New Images, New Details
On August 16, new production images dropped on Twitter via Reddit.
The original poster removed the images, fearing retribution from show staff, but not before others had downloaded and begun distributing them on other social media.
Haven’t seen these posted on Twitter yet
More #fallouttvshow pics, this time from reddit. Originally poster took them down but they were reposted on r/fotv
These ones confirm the farmhouse I was talking about in my last post but also show that it’s in Vault 32. (1/2) #Fallout pic.twitter.com/ZH9q6oi3t9

The new production images show us a first look at Vault 32, where some of the series’ main characters will likely reside.
Images show a farmhouse, corridor, and nursery contained within Vault 32.
Constructed by the Vault-Tec Corporation before the Great War reached its climax, vaults provided certain members of society a place to escape the nuclear holocaust.
But as safe as the vaults seemed, Fallout players know that Vault-Tec wasn’t completely honest about their true purpose.
Unlike the Super Duper Mart, the Vault 32 set looks like it is on a production studio sound stage, and the details look pretty accurate.
At first look, Vault 32 almost looks like the production team 3D printed full-scale models from the Fallout series.
The corridors, doors, furniture, and paint jobs look like they came straight from one of the Fallout games.
If the rest of the Fallout production elements are as accurate as the first few leaked images and videos, the new show could be a worthy addition to the franchise.
