Fallout Season 2 is crucial for Ella Purnell after her other popular franchise, Army of the Dead, was canceled by Netflix. Purnell's role as Lucy MacLean in Fallout is her best and most recognizable, capturing her sheltered personality expertly. Fallout's success has huge franchise potential for Purnell, with over 65 million viewers in two weeks and positive reviews, securing her future career.

Fallout provided Ella Purnell the biggest role of her career so far, but her future in season 2 is even more important after one of her other popular franchises was canceled. Purnell already delivered some great performances before being cast in Fallout, but her role as Lucy MacLean is arguably her best so far, and it's easily her most recognizable. Seeing Lucy adapt to the brutal world of Fallout despite being an innocent, good-hearted vault dweller was a fascinating watch, but the character wouldn't have become a fan favorite without Purnell's lovable underdog spirit.
