Bethesda Game Studios’ director and executive producer Todd Howard was determined to make the ‘Fallout’ TV show canon to the company’s games. The new Amazon Prime show is set in Bethesda’s post-apocalyptic survival franchise - which the studio has helmed since 2008’s ‘Fallout 3’ - and Todd has now emphasised the company wanted to make the programme canon to its gaming series because they felt like it would be “the kind of show [fans would] want to watch”. Speaking to IGN, he said: “Well, it definitely is harder to do, right? “We just felt, as fans of ‘Fallout’, that would be the kind of show w...

Despite it being a hit so far with fans, Todd said in a new interview with IGN, Bet...

In an interview with Total Film, Jonathan said: "From the first conversation with (Bethesda boss) Todd Howard, we were most excited about an original story. “‘Fallout', in my career, is closest to the work we did in adapting ‘...

He said: "Oh, we planned, and those plans went out the window. “We knew we were going to rewrite parts of the engine, so we started building technology for the pla...
