With the filming of Prime Video's
Fallout series adaptation of the popular video game franchise
starting up back in late June, fans have been eagerly awaiting a first look at the new show. With a very big thank you to Collider reader GK from Staten Island, we can bring you some behind-the-scenes images of the exterior set of the Super Duper Mart — a now destroyed supermarket that has made appearances across multiple entries in the post-apocalyptic series.
The new images show off the nuclear-irradiated supermarket's exterior, the wear and tear of the post-war, well, fallout leaving its mark on the facade. The building has the familiar Super Duper Mart logo from the games and has several destroyed vehicles in its parking lot that truly capture that feeling of the 50s retro-futurism that the games are bathed in. The Super Duper Mart first appeared in 2008's
Fallout 3 and has appeared in every Bethesda-developed entry in the series since, including
Fallout 4, Fallout 76, and
Fallout Shelter. Advertisements for the supermarket also made appearances in Obsidian's
Fallout: New Vegas.
Fallout is a beloved and critically-lauded post-apocalyptic RPG series that has won numerous Game of the Year awards across its many entries. The games see players traversing the remnants of a future based on the future envisioned by post-World War II America, a future that was destroyed in a nuclear war that takes place in 2077. Survivors of this Great War took refuge in large underground bunkers known as Vaults. The mainline games take place centuries after the nukes fell and see the player character stepping out into the world from one of these Vaults, making choices along the way as they attempt to survive the destroyed surface world.
