If you’re wondering just how Amazon’s upcoming TV adaptation of Fallout is coming along, leaked production images have now appeared online.

Per the BethesdaArabic fan account on Twitter, the images in question reportedly show off the set for Shelter 33, a shelter that according to the leaker, is “completely new to the series”. The account had previously posted other production photos, which are a hodgepodge of sets and costume design photos, including an appearance of the series’ iconic Power Armor.

Amazon’s “Fallout” TV series stars Kyle MacLachlan (of “Twin Peaks” fame), with Xelia Mendes-Jones, Aaron Moten, Ella Purnell (“Yellowjackets”) and Walton Goggins (The Hateful Eight). Jonathan Nolan will direct the show’s premiere episode, with Geneva Robertson-Dworet and Graham Wagner being the series’ showrunners. Alongside Nolan, “Westworld” co-creator Lisa Joy and Athena Wickham will executive produce the “Fallout” series for Kilter Films, alongside Bethesda Game Studios’ game director Todd Howard and Bethesda Softworks‘ James Altman.

The premise for the TV series sees the future envisioned by Americans in the late 1940s imploding through a nuclear war in 2077. The magic of the Fallout world is the harshness of the wasteland set against the previous generation’s utopian idea of a better world through nuclear energy.

You know video game adaptations are hot when even Golden Axe is making the leap to the screen. And indeed it is, with Deadline reporting that the Sega Genesis video game franchise that debuted back in 1989 is getting an animated series at Comedy Central.

Comedy Central has given “Golden Axe” a 10-episode order, Deadline reports today.

The voice cast for the animated series from CBS Studios in association with Sony Pictures Television and Original Film includes Matthew Rhys (The Americans), Danny Pudi (Mythic Quest), Lisa Gilroy (Jury Duty), Liam McIntyre (Spartacus) and Carl Tart (Grand Crew).

“Described as a hilarious and loving homage to Sega’s video game series, Golden Axe follows veteran warriors Ax Battler, Tyris Flare and Gilius Thunderhead as they once again battle to save Yuria from the evil giant Death Adder who just won’t seem to stay dead. Fortunately, this time they have the inexperienced and underprepared Hampton Squib on their side.”

Mike McMahan (Star Trek: Lower Decks) and Joe Chandler (American Dad!) will co-write the first episode and executive produce the series, with Chandler serving as showrunner.

The original Golden Axe video game was released in 1989, followed by sequels in 1991, 1992 and 1993. The series got a modern day upgrade with Golden Axe: Beast Rider in 2008.
