Fallout: Season 3 begins filming in 2026

Fallout, the hit Amazon Prime Video series, already has an ambitious schedule to continue its post-apocalyptic story. According to information from the Film & Television Alliance, filming for the third season is scheduled to begin on May 1, 2026, in Santa Clarita, California. This swift move, with a start date projected just three months after the end of the second season in February, shows the platform’s commitment to reducing the wait between releases. The strategy, therefore, indicates that Brazilian fans can expect new episodes as early as 2027, keeping the series in the spotlight.
Production is in an advanced pre-production stage, thanks to the return of showrunners Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet, who ensure creative continuity. In this way, the team promises another journey full of action and nuclear satire, with filming extending through the beginning of the northern hemisphere’s summer. Furthermore, visual effects are expected to once again be an essential component in post-production, ensuring the visual quality that won over the audience. Therefore, expectations are high to see what new secrets of the radioactive desert will be revealed.
Rumors and Connections with the Games
While the plot details for the third season are still a mystery, rumors suggest possible links to the future Fallout 5, Bethesda’s next major game. However, executive producer Todd Howard has publicly denied that the series directly influences the game’s development, fearing it could diminish the experience of both products. Still, he admitted that the development team is keeping an eye on elements from the series that could, in the future, inspire the game universe. In other words, the shared canon between the media continues to be a two-way street full of possibilities.
With the second season about to conclude its run in early 2026, fans will soon have more clues about the direction of the story. Thus, the promise of a more consistent release schedule for the series is great news for those who have ventured through the desert with Lucy, Maximus, and the other characters. In this way, Fallout’s atomic success on TV seems destined to shine for a good while longer, uniting both veteran fans of the franchise and newcomers to the post-apocalyptic universe.
