Amazon has dived into the world of video games, with a TV production in the pipeline for its adaptation of the post-apocalyptic RPG Fallout, and plans to do the same with Mass Effect. Interestingly, one of the creators of Fallout has confirmed that they are also working on a TV series called Wasteland, a prequel to the Fallout saga.<\/p>\n
“Wasteland was very close to becoming a TV series,” said veteran Brian Fargo<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
“So close that a 2 hour pilot was written,”<\/em> added the creative, who is also responsible for other role-playing classics such as The Bard’s Tale and the fantastic Torment: Tides of Numenera. But far from being content to leave us with just this confirmation, the developer also shared the script for the pilot episode.<\/p>\n
“I thought it would be interesting to post the whole screenplay on the internet? Would love to hear your feedback. Enjoy!”<\/em> concludes Fargo. Predictably, fans are ecstatic at the idea of turning the nuclear wasteland of Wasteland into a TV series, so when asked why the series was axed, Fargo simply replied on social media, “Typical Hollywood story… not predictable.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Fargo didn’t go into further details about who designed the series, although we do know the names of the scriptwriters – British writers Adam Gyngell and Fred Armesto, who worked on TV productions including Strangers and White Dragon. Will we ever see a Wasteland series? At the moment, it seems that plans have been put on ice, but there is no doubt that this is a post-apocalyptic universe that would be great to adapt for television.<\/p>\n
