As a fan who has been following the behind-the-scenes struggles of the cast and crew of the “Fallout” series, I can’t help but feel a newfound respect for their commitment to bringing this post-apocalyptic world to life. Walton Goggins’ experience with the grueling makeup process and Aaron Moten’s tales of wrestling with the massive Power Armor suit have given me a whole new perspective on the challenges they faced.
If you have an active Amazon Prime Video subscription, there’s a good chance you’ve caught up with the latest “Fallout” series. The show became a huge success on the platform, so we can expect Season 2 soon. Although it was entertaining to watch, it seems the production process wasn’t as enjoyable.
As a gamer immersed in the post-apocalyptic world of Fallout, I can relate to the challenges Walton Goggins faced. The hours I spent applying my own ghoul makeup felt like a piece of his struggle. Filming in actual deserts to recreate the wasteland wasn’t just about capturing the authenticity; it meant enduring scorching heat, much like how we gamers persist through long gaming sessions. But here’s the kicker – even the wardrobe posed its own set of exhaustion, a challenge I can only imagine he faced too.
Walton Goggins He Wasn’t Sure He Could Handle The Make Up
Numerous individuals who have undergone extensive makeup and prosthetic changes often discuss the challenges they encounter. Dave Bautista was relieved to conclude his portrayal of Drax in the Marvel Cinematic Universe due to the demanding nature of the metamorphosis. Walton Goggins, in an interview with the L.A. Times, admitted that while he eventually adapted to the process, initially, he questioned whether he would actually be capable of enduring it. He expressed…
Initially, spending five hours in the chair seemed quite difficult, but soon it became routine. Each day started with a focus and tranquility required for such a long period of sitting. However, let me clarify, it was exceptionally hot. I didn’t expect to feel this level of exhaustion. On the first day, seated alone on a log, I doubted my ability, thinking, ‘I’m not as young as I used to be, I don’t think I can do this.’
Ultimately, Goggins discovered that spending time in the makeup room offered him a calming and reflective experience. On the other hand, Aaron Moten, Goggins’ fellow actor, grappled with the challenges of filming ‘Fallout’ on location.
Aaron Moten Reveals The Fallout Power Armor Was As Tough To Wear As It Looked
In the world of Fallout games, Power Armors are instantly recognizable. Given this, we weren’t surprised when they appeared in the show too. These colossal metal suits might look impressive, but maneuverability isn’t their forte, even in the game. Interestingly, the same goes for the actual Power Armor used in the series. According to Aaron Moten, donning it wasn’t a walk in the park as it was just as heavy as it seemed. In fact, some parts were too hefty to be designed for movement. As Moten put it…
The suit had multiple features, one of which was immovable and resembled a stationary clamshell that you could step into. The upper half weighed approximately 50 pounds, making it feel like wearing a bulky metal gorilla costume. The motorized helmet, including the battery component, added to this weight. When in motion, it’s usually Adam Shippey wearing the suit, whom I fondly call our daredevil stuntman. In total, the suit weighs over 100 pounds. During breaks between takes, we helped each other stand up because despite not complaining, we endured a great deal of discomfort, struggling to breathe due to the heavy weight.
Creating the Fallout series wasn’t a walk in the park, but it seems like the actors found enjoyment in their roles. I’m glad to hear that, since they are all set to reappear in Fallout Season 2 at some point.
