At a photocall for her latest Amazon Prime series, Fallout, Ella Purnell cut a chic figure at the Canneseries International Festival on Friday. As she joined her co-stars on the sun-soaked sea front, the actress, 27, looked stunning in an edgy olive green co-ord. In the ensemble that featured a plunging corset with straps hanging from the hem and a racy split maxi skirt, Ella displayed her sense of style.

Ella Purnell caught the eye as she joined a slew of reality stars at a special screening of her new Amazon Prime series, Fallout. The actress, 27, will attend the launch of the show on April 12, 27 years after its inception. Ella will play the role of vault dweller Lucy in this fallout based on the popular video game franchise.

Prime Video has premiered the first photos from Prime Video's highly awaited TV series Fallout, based on the hugely popular video game collection. Last month, the Amazon streaming service announced that the series would premiere on April 12, 2024, in over 240 countries around the world. The photos include a first glance at Walton Goggins' nose-less bounty hunter The Ghoul, Ella Purnell's Vault Dweller Lucy, Aaron Moten as soldier Maximus and Kyle MacLachlan's Hank, who is also Lucy's father.

On the forthcoming season two of Showtime's hit series Yellowjackets, Lauren Ambrose is supposed to be a series regular. Vanessa 'Van' Palmer, the 44-year-old actress, will appear in the adult version of the character, whose teen counterpart is currently played by Liv Hewson. Hewson, 26, 26, was also confirmed on the network on Thursday that he was a regular on the show. Ambrose appears on the show after an appearance in HBO's Six Feet Under, where she starred for five seasons and earned her two Primetime Emmy Award nominations.

The Yellowjackets are set to return for their second season, but not as soon as fans expected. The showtime hit series, which follows a high school girl soccer team after they survive a plane crash deep in the Canadian wilderness, will most likely premiere in early 2023. Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson, co-creators, told TheWrap that production will begin in August: "It's a deeply serialized story, and we wanted to make sure we didn't hurry it and we got it right." And so this was the first we'd seen that.'
