As a seasoned fan of post-apocalyptic narratives and a connoisseur of gritty, character-driven performances, I can hardly contain my excitement for the return of Walton Goggins as The Ghoul in Fallout Season 2! Having been buried under layers of prosthetics to transform into this vicious, radiation-mutated bounty hunter was undoubtedly a challenging role, but Goggins’ dedication and passion for the character shone through in every scene.
Prepare to emerge from the aftermath once more, as it was announced that production has begun on Season 2 of “Fallout.” Walton Goggins shared the news, and while his fellow cast members Ella Purnell and Aaron Moten donned comfortable vault suits and soared through the skies in advanced, fusion-powered armor, Goggins was hidden beneath layers of prosthetics to become The Ghoul. Due to genetic mutations brought on by high levels of radiation, The Ghoul has been roaming the wasteland for more than 200 years, transforming into a ruthless assassin. In Season 1, Goggins delivered an exceptional portrayal as the ghoulish bounty hunter, and he’s set to reprise his role in Season 2, a fact that any “Fallout” enthusiast will confirm: war never alters.
Walton Goggins shared on Instagram that he’ll be playing a character named The Ghoul, as evidenced by a photo from the makeup chair where skilled artists were applying the character’s face onto his. In a playful nod to the Phantom of the Opera, Goggins hinted that one side of his face might resemble the masked character, if switched.
Ah, back to my favorite seat once more, it’s like slipping into an old friend. I’m here for the passion, the thrill, the sheer love of cinema.
In October, Leslie Uggams hinted that filming for Season 2 of Fallout was about to start. Now, thanks to Goggins, we have an official confirmation. At this point, specific details about Season 2 are limited. However, based on the ending of Season 1, here’s what we can anticipate so far. The second season is expected to transport viewers to New Vegas, Nevada. Known as one of the most renowned locations from the entire Fallout video game series, New Vegas is under intense control struggle between the expanding government of the New California Republic and the Caesar’s Legion, a band of mercenaries inspired by ancient Rome.
‘Fallout’ Is Walton Goggins’ “Most Difficult” Role
Walton Goggins clearly loves playing The Ghoul in Fallout, but it doesn’t come without its challenges. When the actor first wore the make-up for Season 1, he was terrified about his performance being lost under all the plastic and latex. “I’d say Fallout is the most difficult, only because of the challenges of the prosthetics, not knowing what was gonna come through,” he admitted.
Goggins had also never played any of the Fallout video games. Even after he was cast, Goggins admitted that he purposefully steered clear of the games. He wanted his performance as The Ghoul to feel fresh, and not be too inspired by any past ghouls from the games. He explained, “I never played the game. So when this kind of came my way, I didn’t want to play it ’cause I didn’t want to be influenced by whatever version of The Ghoul is in the games.”
As of now, the exact launch date for Fallout Season 2 hasn’t been announced yet. However, it has been confirmed that actors like Goggins, Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten, and Leslie Uggams (playing Overseer Betty Pearson) will reprise their roles in the upcoming season. As for Kyle MacLachlan, while he hasn’t explicitly stated his return, given that Lucy (Purnell) and The Ghoul are persistently pursuing him to New Vegas, it seems likely that he will be back.
