One of the actors from the series about Fallout on Amazon has thanked some YouTubers who helped him prepare for his role. One of the mentioned YouTubers reacted – and is incredibly excited.
Who is this actor? It is Rafi Silver. The actor portrays Robert House in the series about Fallout – a character that fans of the games already know from Fallout: New Vegas. Mr. House is the enigmatic ruler of New Vegas, most of the time he appears as a face on a screen that speaks to the player character.
In a recently released interview clip from IGN, Silver publicly thanked some YouTubers. He utilized their videos about Fallout to get a better feel for the character. You can also see this clip as a Short on YouTube.
Here you can see the trailer for Fallout Season 2:
Actor spent hours watching lore videos on YouTube
This is what the actor said: Silver watched “hours and hours” of YouTube videos to prepare for his role. He explains: “I come from drama school and I like to have a dramaturg.” In this case, YouTube was his dramaturg.
The actor even names four YouTubers in this interview: JuiceHead, MrMattyPlays, Oxhorn, and KnightRaven. “I studied every one of those videos over and over and over,” he says. This way he learned more and more about the story of Mr. House.
Those YouTubers are so dedicated. They were the ones that educated me and being on set, doing this, I feel like it’s my way of saying ‘thank you’ to them.
What do the YouTubers say about this? One has already spoken up after the release of this clip – MrMattyPlays. He apparently can hardly believe what has happened.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the YouTuber writes: “Dude, I’ve rewatched this like 80 times and I still CAN’T BELIEVE IT!!!!”
In the comments on this post, there are congratulations raining down for the YouTuber:
- “Yo, this is awesome! Well deserved!”, writes the user Eric Smith on X
- PlayStalgia says: “So cool, and that man seemed ready to name-drop you guys too, like he wanted to make sure you got a proper shoutout” (on X)
YouTuber KnightRaven also noticed this shoutout. In the comments to the clip on YouTube, he speaks up and writes: “Thank you so much! I’m so honored!” None of these YouTubers probably ever thought that their videos would someday be incorporated in such a way into a Fallout series.
