Fallout Season 2 Lucy Hopes detailed by Ella Purnell

Notice! Major spoilers ahead for Fallout Season 1.

To fall star Ella Purnell shares her hopes for Lucy in Season 2 of Prime Video's hit adaptation. Coming from producers Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wanger, the apocalyptic dark comedy series serves as an adaptation of the video game franchise of the same name. After To fall season 1 received rave reviews from critics and audiences alike, Prime Video has confirmed that the series will return for season 2 at some point in the future.

In a recent interview with HQPurnell reveals what she hopes is next for Lucy in To fall 2nd season. According to the actor, she is eager to see some evolution from her protagonist, but also emphasizes how important it is for Lucy to maintain some important characterizations from season 1. Check out Purnell's full comment below:

I just want her to keep being funny, because that's so much fun to do. I want her to continue to have really cool stunt sequences, because that's really fun to do. [Laughs.] I would like to see her become herself. I'd like to see her form some opinions that feel truly and completely hers, and not a product of her education, or a product of Vault-Tec.

I think part of her being a good person is really her, and I think that's who she is. I don't know if this will stay or end, I would be willing to play either way. But I'd also like to see her say, like, 'No, I don't like that food,' or 'No, I don't think you…' A little rebellion, maybe.

Fallout Season 2 Could Feature a Different Version of Lucy

But Ella Purnell's character shouldn't change much

After learning the state of the post-apocalyptic world after leaving her vault, Lucy, over the course of the season, becomes more capable and less naive. Although it evolves, it remains, perhaps until the end, basically the same in its essence. By nature, she is a kind and trustworthy person, but her sheltered existence also contributed to this.

The events of the To fall The Season 1 finale, however, sees her leave for the Wasteland a changed person. The finale hits Lucy with several big revelations at once, including the discovery that her father, Hank (Kyle MacLachlan) is responsible for the bombing of Shady Sands and her mother has been turned into a ghoul. What's left of her mother also remains “alive” and in an advanced – and disturbing – ghoul state. The first season ends with Lucy cutting ties with her father and shooting her mother in the head before leaving for the Wasteland with The Ghoul (Walton Goggins).

It's unclear exactly what awaits Lucy in To fall Season 2, but audiences could have gotten a more self-assured, less confident version of the character. After all, since she chose to travel with the Ghoul, she may end up becoming more like him in more ways than one. However, as Purnell states, it's also important that Lucy retains some of the characteristics that made audiences want to follow her journey in the first place.
