The focus is on the buddy road-trip comedy dynamic between Lucy (Purnell) and The Ghoul (Goggins), who reluctantly team up in the post-apocalyptic Wasteland.

Key quotes
· 3 pulledLucy's on this road trip with The Ghoul. They're annoying each other, they're like a married couple, bickering and trying to sort things out.
We're focused on not f*cking up the source material that fans love.
The Wasteland is a pretty bleak place to be — not the ideal location for a buddy road-trip comedy.
