Fallout TV show star Ella Purnell, who plays Lucy, has discussed what she hopes her character can do and achieve in the upcoming second season. Speaking to GQ, Purnell said she wants to see Lucy have more character growth and do more stunts, among other things.
“I just want her to continue to be funny, because that’s really fun to do. I want her to continue to have really cool stunt sequences, because that’s really fun to do. [Laughs.] I’d like to see her become her own person,” she said. “I’d like to see her form some opinions that feel truly and wholly hers, and not a product of her upbringing, or a product of Vault-Tec.”
Purnell went on to say that Lucy is a good person, and that’s “just who she is.” Could that change down the road? Purnell doesn’t know, but she’s open to playing Lucy however she’s written.
“I don’t know if that’s going to stay or going to go; I’d be down to play it either way. But I’d also like to see her go, like, ‘No, I don’t like this food,’ or ‘No, I don’t think what you…’ A little tiny rebellion, maybe,” she said.
Fallout debuted on Prime Video on April 10 and was generally well received by fans. In terms of streaming numbers, Prime Video hasn’t disclosed specifics on how the show has performed, but Prime Video’s own website lists Fallout as the platform’s most popular show right now.
It didn’t take long after Fallout’s debut for Prime Video to order a second season. Intriguingly, Fallout’s season finale teases a new location for Season 2. For more, check out GameSpot’s rundown of everything we know about Fallout Season 2.
