Fallout fans have noticed a striking similarity between a character in the Amazon Prime Video series The Ghoul and a beloved AI from the Fallout: New Vegas video game. Walton Goggins’ character, Cooper Howard, who appears as a Western actor in flashback scenes, bears a remarkable resemblance to Victor, the cowboy-like Securitron AI that patrols the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.
Fans have taken to social media to share their theories about the possible connection between the two characters. Some suggest that Cooper Howard could have worked with Vault-Tec, the secretive corporation behind the Fallout games, which could have led to him voicing Victor. Others believe that the resemblance is simply a coincidence.
Regardless of the true nature of the connection, the discovery has sparked excitement among Fallout fans. With the season one finale of The Ghoul teasing a possible season two, some speculate that a mash-up between the show and the game could be on the horizon, featuring Goggins voicing Victor and encountering the AI as his character The Ghoul.
