Abandoned California mall transformed into post-apocalyptic Las Vegas set for ‘Fallout’

In a fascinating behind-the-scenes reveal, it's been confirmed that the production team behind the highly anticipated second season of Amazon Prime's "The Fallout" opted for a creative twist to capture the essence of its "New Vegas" scenes. Rather than filming on location in the neon-lit streets of Las Vegas, the crew chose to shoot at an abandoned Los Angeles mall, aiming to achieve a distinct "retro-futuristic" aesthetic. By repurposing a decaying retail space, the filmmakers were able to create a visually striking and nostalgic atmosphere that pays homage to the classic sci-fi and post-apocalyptic narratives that inspired the show. The result is a unique blend of gritty realism and retrofuturistic flair, setting the stage for an exciting and unpredictable second season.

“Fallout” Season 2’s “New Vegas” scenes were shot in an abandoned LA mall, not the real Sin City, for a “retro-futuristic” vibe!
