00:02 This is a dream come true for me as a director,
00:04 because you're picking up the mantle of something
00:07 that so many talented writers and artists have
00:10 worked on for so many decades.
00:12 And we knew that we wanted to tell an original story
00:15 within the "Fallout" universe.
00:17 We were drawn to the idea of creating characters
00:19 who would embody the different factions
00:21 that "Fallout" is so famous for.
00:23 So a vault dweller, a ghoul, a member
00:25 of the Brotherhood of Steel.
00:27 We wanted to show as much of the world
00:29 as we can through different lenses.
00:31 And it just makes you lean in.
00:32 My name is Lucy McLean, and I'm an active contributor
00:41 to the well-being of my community.
00:43 She is doing her duty.
00:45 She's rebuilding America.
00:47 And then she really has her whole world rocked.
00:49 She comes out onto the surface and experiences
00:55 the world for the first time.
00:56 Excuse me.
00:57 Hi.
00:58 I just want to ask you for directions.
01:01 And then it gets real ugly, real fast.
01:05 Hello again.
01:07 The ghoul is someone who has seen the worst that we have
01:10 to offer as human beings.
01:12 He's about as ruthless as they come.
01:15 "Fallout" explores the chasm between the haves
01:18 and the have-nots in a world where it's kill or be killed.
01:24 We find Maximus as a recruit.
01:25 He's a part of the Brotherhood of Steel.
01:28 Seeing these T-60s, something that symbolizes power,
01:31 it's a moment of awe.
01:34 The introduction of Lucy, I don't
01:36 think it's anything that he would have ever expected.
01:38 The Wasteland is very different from the Vault.
01:41 "Fallout" does a really great job of showing
01:43 both sides of that coin.
01:45 I love a big setting.
01:46 So to be able to juxtapose the real human emotions
01:50 with this large scale is the kind of story
01:52 that I like to see.
01:55 There's a tone reminiscent of the good, the bad, the ugly.
01:58 Meets "Doctor Strange" love.
02:00 Meets "Star Wars."
02:02 Balancing the darker, more emotional moments
02:04 with the profound humor creates the unique tone of "Fallout."
02:09 You're an actual Vault Dweller.
02:11 I am.
02:12 [LAUGHTER]
02:15 I thought all you dim shits were dead.
02:18 Practically every person I've met up here has tried to kill me.
02:21 You have never been on a ride like this before.
02:25 Look out at this Wasteland.
02:27 Looks like chaos.
02:29 But there's always somebody behind the wheel.
