He said, \u201cI did this movie with Robert Duvall when I was 24 years old, called The Apostle. He was doing this big tent revival scene, and the next day he was having a party at his house, and I got invited. It was a very small group of people, but there at this party was Bobby [Duvall] and June Carter Cash, who was playing Bobby\u2019s mother in the movie, and Johnny Cash. They sat and played for four or five hours for 20 people. I was a kid, but I got to sit in that room at the feet of these icons and listen to what they had to contribute to the world, and it\u2019s still one of the greatest memories of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/wp-content\/themes\/pmc-deadline-2019\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.jpg\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/FalloutS2PLimage4_3000.jpg\" alt=\"Walton Goggins in 'Fallout'\" data-lazy- data-lazy- height=\"577\" width=\"1024\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\tWalton Goggins as The Ghoul in \u2018Fallout\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPrime Video<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tGoggins came to the interview fresh from the Spanish shoot of his upcoming film Mister, directed by Tom Cruise\u2019s go-to stunt coordinator and AD Wade Eastwood (Mission: Impossible, Jack Reacher, Edge of Tomorrow). Goggins says of the film, in which he stars with Chlo\u00eb Grace Moretz and The Pitt star Katherine LaNasa, \u201cI play someone who has amnesia, so I don\u2019t remember! Just kidding, I\u2019m so excited about it, really. It\u2019s batsh*t crazy on the page\u2026 It\u2019s like John Wick meets Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon meets Little Miss Sunshine, there\u2019s something for everybody, and our director, Wade Eastwood, is one of the best action directors in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tOf course, Goggins is also ramping up on Season 3 of Fallout, in which he plays The Ghoul \u2014 a radiation-mutated version of an actor named Cooper Howard \u2014 who searches a post-apocalyptic wasteland for his missing family alongside Lucy (Ella Purnell).<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tWhat has he learned through playing The Ghoul so far? Said Goggins, \u201cHe\u2019s taught me that we all may stray sometimes a long way from who we know we are. At any point in our life, we can take an inventory, do some therapy, and be reminded that we are who we thought we always were.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/wp-content\/themes\/pmc-deadline-2019\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.jpg\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Goggins-1.jpg\" alt=\"Fallout\" data-lazy- data-lazy- height=\"682\" width=\"1024\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\tWalton Goggins as Jake Cooper in \u2018Fallout\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPrime Video<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tHe also had some thoughts on what could have happened if Rick, his character in The White Lotus, had survived the finale. \u201cI\u2019m glad I don\u2019t have to think about that, because it\u2019s nice to let old Rick go,\u201d he said, \u201cbut I would say it all would have worked out. I think he was onto something, finding real peace. He probably would have been with his lady somewhere in Thailand or Southeast Asia, starting a clothing company.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tTo watch the whole interview, including some singing from Goggins, the films he always returns to, and how he entertains himself for the many hours he spends in makeup artist Jake Garber\u2019s chair for The Ghoul, click on the video above.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This Week\u2019s Take Ten guest is Fallout star Walton Goggins.
