Popverse's top stories of the day

• Marvel changing stories from comics to movies is a feature, not a bug, says Avengers: Secret Wars directors the Russo brothers
• Watch the full Star Trek Universe panel from NYCC 2024 with Lower Decks, Starfleet Academy, and Section 31
• Ella Purnell's favorite Fallout co-star isn't who you think - because their best scenes never made it into the show

Ella Purnell enjoyed filming Fallout for Amazon's Prime Video, and got to work with many amazing actors including Kyle MacLachlan and Walton Goggins, but her favorite was actually someone you may not know - someone who doesn't even have a Wikipedia page. It's Chet - cousin Chet! - played by Dave Register.

During the MCM x EGX 2024 spotlight panel with Purnell that we hosted, we asked the actor her favorite character and Chet came up trumps.

"It might be cousin Chet from Vault 33. I just think he's so funny," Purnell told Popverse's Veronica Valencia, who was moderating the panel. "Also there were a few scenes that we got to do together that didn't end up making the series, and I just wish they had because he's so funny."

Register is a relative newcomer to TV, with his role as Fallout's cousin Chet his biggest to date. He previously appeared in minor roles on CBS's Madam Secretary and FBI

"I really hope one day they release some of those scenes," Purnell continued. "He's a hysterical guy."

While Amazon hasn't announced plans for a DVD/Blu-Ray edition of Fallout, they have done physical media editions of their shows in the past - and those releases have included deleted scenes in some cases.

Of course, you can watch the full Ella Purnell spotlight panel from MCM x EGX 2024 as a Popverse member anytime.
