Amazon first announced a "Fallout" TV series in 2020. Now, it officially has an estimated premiere date.
Amazon announced on social media Wednesday the show would be premiering on its Prime Video streaming platform sometime in 2024.
The post-nuclear role-playing video game first came out in October 1997 and has spawned multiple sequels and spin-offs since.
According to Variety, the Amazon series will be set "in a world where the future envisioned by Americans in the late 1940s explodes upon itself through a nuclear war in 2077."
According to Rotten Tomatoes, the "Fallout" TV series will be developed and written by Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan. The duo co-created popular Emmy-winning HBO show "Westworld," which was abruptly canceled by HBO in November 2022.

Bethesda Games Studios' Todd Howard, the game director of "Fallout 3" and "Fallout 4" and the executive producer of "Fallout 76" and "Fallout Shelter," said at the Gamescom convention in Cologne, Germany, that the TV series will be set in Los Angeles around the same time as the games.
Footage of the show was also reportedly shown at the convention, including the moment when the nuclear bombs landed in Los Angeles.
Variety has reported that Walton Goggins, Ella Purnell, Kyle MacLachlan, Xelia Mendes-Jones and Aaron Moten are set to be in the cast.
