ARCANE and YELLOWJACKETS star Ella Purnell joins the FALLOUT TV series

British actress Ella Purnell has joined the Fallout TV project at Amazon.


Purnell is definitely having a career moment. Last year she played Jackie on Showtime's breakout mega-hit Yellowjackets and voiced Powder (aka Jinx) on Netflix's Arcane. She also voices the character of Gwyn on the well-received Star Trek spin-off Prodigy. She also popped up in Zack Snyder's Army of the Dead last year.

Purnell's character is "upbeat and uncannily direct with an all-American can-do spirit," with a hint of danger in her intensity. Purnell is joining the already-cast Walton Goggins (Justified) who will be playing a Ghoul, a human made effectively immortal by radiation at the cost of their appearance.

The Fallout show is executive produced by the Westworld team of Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, and is currently in pre-production.
