Fallout Alley: The Series

Fallout Alley: The Series also known as Gone: The Series, Gone and Fallout Alley: A Gone Story is a 2022 Web Supernatural Horror-Drama created for streaming on Disney+ by Daniel Stephen. It is based on the Gone Series by Michael Grant, who also serves as an executive producer. Kevin Feige, Calum Kelmer and Matthew Vaughn all server as executive producers. The show premiered on Disney+ Star in June 2022 and ran for 10 weeks. The first season is near-completely faithful to the first book with extra plot points and character development added which Michael Grant advised personally. A major change made to the series is its main premise of anyone under the age of 15 disappearing is altered slightly, now it is anyone under the age of 18. The series follows an ensemble cast including Ty Simpkins, Jaeden Martell, Brec Bassinger, Nicholas Hamilton, Yara Shahidi, Sadie Sink, Matt Lintz, Jack Dylan Grazer, Javier Mortez, Julian Hillard with Bill Hader and Anna Gunn. In Season Two, Millie Bobby Brown, Lucas Sherman, Skas Jackson, Diego Velaques, Justin Zhan, Cooper McCallum and Sophia Recarlo join the main cast. In Season Three, Lola Denna, Satnam Puta and Karan Barr are added to the main cast.

Daniel Stephen developed the show after being a fan of the books in his childhood, he had pencilled a script for a Gone movie to Grant in 2019 but it was shelved in favour of his work on Kingsman 1984 among other things. After several years, Stephen wrote a pilot script for a series and presented it to Kevin Fegie, hoping Marvel Studios would be interested in developing a different universe of heroes and buying the rights to the series, however, it was instead sent to Star Studios to be developed by Stephen and Grant further.
