Earlier in his speech the Amazon higher-up explained that the streamer’s new series Fall Out had been renewed for a third season before Season 2 even premiered.

“How lucky are we to have fallout. The quality of the filmmaking and the storytelling in Season 2 is next level. I’m telling you it’s going to be epic,” Vernon said.

“So I get to make my first big announcement of the night. We are officially green lighting Season 3 of fall out,” He divulged. “I want to thank eveyrone who is involved with this terrific series.”

Vernon went on to disclose that there were some other popular programs that were going to return to Prime Video along with Fallout.

“Now at Prime Video, we love delighting audiences with big event progrmaming like fall out, Reacher, The Boys…. Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power.. all these shows are returning soon,” the media head honcho stated.

On X, formerly known as Twitter, active Amazon Prime Video users commented on the Fallout news, as one said: “Seems like Amazon has a hit on their hands. Even before the second season of the ‘Fallout’ series released, the third season has already been renewed.”
