As the Fallout Season 2 premiere continues to climb the viewing charts, fans are noticing subtle details of different characters. One of the characters that has fans buzzing and constantly theorizing is Justin Theroux, who is playing someone named "Mr. House". We don't have a character name as of now, and all we know of him is that he is indeed a House.But co-showrunner Geneva Robertson-Dworet did cite the real-life business magnate Howard Hughes as an influence for Theroux's character. The co-showrunner confirmed these parallels at the Fallout Season 2 premiere to ScreenRant:"Hughes became an increasingly bizarre recluse over the course of his life."Here's the thing, though, Justin Theroux's unnamed character is not the first fictional billionaire to be influenced by Howard Hughes. Marvel's Iron Man and The Dark Knight Rises also had their main characters influenced by Hughes.Fallout Season 2 may be adapting the tragic side of Howard Hughes' life: View this post on Instagram Instagram PostIn both the MCU and the comics, Tony Stark is a playboy billionaire. Unlike the MCU, where Tony left his playboy lifestyle behind, Tony's love life is not that stable in the comics. This aspect of Tony's character is influenced by Howard Hughes' early years when he was a public figure. Marvel legend Stan Lee himself acknowledged the Hughes influence in a 2010 interview with Talk of the Nation:"Actually, with Tony Stark, what I was really trying to do I always liked reading about Howard Hughes. And I thought it would be fun to get a superhero who went against the popular notion of what the superhero fans wanted. Most of our readers didn't like wealthy people or industrialists or people who made war materials and so forth. And I thought it would a challenge to make them like a guy like that. So I made him, as much as I could, like a Howard Hughes character, but with a sense of humor and a little bit of tragedy thrown in."Lee further continued:"And, you know, the funny thing about Iron Man, we got more fan mail from females for the "Iron Man" book than any other comic. I guess it was because he was rich and handsome and he did have a bad heart. And he needed someone to look after him. And that must have appealed to females very much."Contrarily, Theroux's Fallout Season 2 mysterious, unnamed character might be influenced by the reclusive part of Hughes's life.Some believe that Theroux may be playing Anthony House in Fallout Season 2:Fallout Season 1 introduced us to Rafi Silver's Robert Edwin House, the CEO of RobCo Industries. However, the season 2 premiere introduces a new "Mr. House" played by Justin Theroux. While some theories suggest that Rafi Silver is a body double and Theroux might be the real Robert Edwin House. However, fans have another plausible theory.The "Mr. House" we saw in the Fallout Season 2 premiere might be Robert's half-brother, Anthony House, the owner of H&H Tools Company. Anthony had cut Robert off from his inheritance in H&H Tools Company, prompting the latter to establish RobCo Industries. While Anthony initially prospered, RobCo Industries surpassed H&H Tools Company over time.This causes Anthony to go paranoid, and one day, he locks himself inside H&H Tools Company and is never seen again. If Theroux is indeed playing Anthony House in Fallout Season 2, he may become a recluse like Howard Hughes. Even Justin Theroux alluded to Hughes's influence on his character in a Deadline interview:“I don’t really think of him as the bad guy. I had fun poking fun at that kind of billionaire tech class. At least internally, that was sort of the fun of playing this character. Because there’s obviously so many sort of parallels, I guess, that you could draw between him and other people or other sort of more analog people like Howard Hughes or whatever, but I sort of saw him as just this incredibly nerdy, slightly heartless guy who believed in his technology, and believed in his right to sort of reorganize the world in the image that he wanted it to be. So, it was just fun.”You can catch the Fallout Season 2 premiere on Prime Video before the second episode streams on Wednesday.
