Fallout season 2 has been delayed due to the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires, with filming initially set to begin on January 8. The first season of Fallout was inundated with positive reviews from viewers and critics when it first aired in 2024, winning multiple awards, including Best Adaptation at The Game Awards 2024.

Fallout’s season 2 was set to begin filming on January 8, but after massive wildfires broke out across Southern California on January 7, it will now continue on January 10. In a statement on its website, FilmLA said the LA County Fire Department instructed them to revoke all permits.

Described as the “most destructive fire in LA history,” an area over 15,800 acres between Malibu and Santa Monica is burning. Over 2,000 structures have been destroyed, with an estimated 130,000 people under evacuation warnings. The safety of everyone battling the fires and affected is of utmost importance at this difficult time.

Safety Measures and Production Rescheduling

In response to the wildfires, production teams are prioritizing safety by postponing shoots and evacuating sets in affected areas. Although fans eagerly wait for Fallout’s second season, the decision to postpone filming was taken to protect everyone involved.

Anticipated Release and Future Updates

Amazon plans to release Fallout season 2 in late 2025 or early 2026. Over 100 million people have now watched the first season. Fallout only sits behind The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power as the platform’s most-watched show ever.

Production on Fallout’s second season is now set to begin on January 10 if possible. Macaulay Culkin joins the cast for season two, with the series expected to head to New Vegas. Filming will hopefully begin in a few days, and the series is unlikely to air later than 2026.

Conclusion

Although Fallout’s season two has delayed filming due to the LA wildfires, the safety of cast, crew, and emergency crews are paramount.
