Lynda Carter Looks Back on 'Sultry, Smoky' Role Fans Consider 'Some of Her Best Work'

As the premiere of Prime Video's multi-Emmy Award-nominated and winning seriesFallout'ssecond season draws near, one alum of the revered video games—which havesparked real-life product collaborations that have sold out almost immediately—from which the show takes its inspiration, is looking back on her time recording vocals for one of its many installments.

Lynda Carter, perhaps best known for starring as Wonder Woman, took to X this week, just days ahead of the Dec. 17 season premiere, to "reminisce" about the "sultry, smoky" vocals she laid down a decade ago as Magnolia, a singer who can be found performing at a bar called the Third Rail inFallout 4.

The legendary actress shared a snippet of her song on the social media platform, showing an animated brunette in a little red dress crooning a track called "Baby, It's Just You"—one of several featuring her musical talents.

"The season 2 premiere of @falloutonprime is just days away, inspiring me to go back to the Third Rail and reminisce," she captioned the clip, in part, describing the song she chose to share as "a sultry, smoky tune."

"Watch out for this girl, fellas…" she added, along with a link to stream the track.

Longtime Fans Loved the Throwback to What Many Consider 'Some of Her Best Work'

Many fans were shocked to learn she voiced the iconic character, with one commenter complimenting, "You get cooler and cooler. Some people do that."

However, most fans were quick to affirm their loyalty to her work in the game, with one of them calling Magnolia "one of the best things about FO4."

"i loved magnolia, some of your best work," another applauded.

Could This Be an Easter Egg of More to Come?

Several also crossed their fingers that this may be a hint at more to come, with one declaring, "They should have you in the next season! ☢️☝🏻☢️."

"Cameo in an upcoming season?" someone else agreed. "Would be a coolEasteregg for those who know."

Fallouttakes place several hundred years post-nuclear apocalypse, and follows Lucy MacLean (Ella Purnell) as she steps out onto the surface after her ancestors spent the last severalgenerationssurviving in an underground vault (each video game features a similar premise, though they all take place at varying post-apocalypse chronologies).

Lucy teams up with The Ghoul, played byWalton Goggins, for an unlikely partnership, with the two heading to the ruins of Las Vegas from the California coast as the second season kicks off.

While Carter's character resides in the remnants of Boston, we're sure they could find some reason for her to make the cross-country trek—or rework her lore a bit. It doesn't seem like her dedicated fans would mind!

NEED TO KNOW

  • Video captured the Coast Guard performing the medevac of a cruise ship passenger

  • The individual was a 65-year-old man who suffered from multiple medical conditions

  • "I'm proud of the teamwork that resulted in a successful patient transport from the Celebrity Apex to a higher level of care," the co-pilot said

A video captured by the U.S. Coast Guard showed the heroic rescue of a cruise ship passenger near Puerto Rico.

In a Thursday, Dec. 11press release, the Department of Homeland Security shared footage of a Coast Guard MH-60T Jayhawk crew as they medevaced a Celebrity Apex cruise ship passenger, approximately 24 nautical miles north of Arecibo, Puerto Rico.

The clip captured the sheer skill of the crew member as he hoisted a 65-year-old man who suffered from multiple medical conditions onto the helicopter as it was suspended above the 1004 ft. vessel on the open sea.

"I'm proud of the teamwork that resulted in a successful patient transport from the Celebrity Apex to a higher level of care," said Lt. Alberto Raymond, Coast Guard MH-60T Jayhawk aircraft co-pilot for the case.

"Thank you to the crews of the Celebrity Apex, our team in San Juan, and Air Station Borinquen. All our training is for moments like this, and I'm grateful we could help save a life," he continued.

The Celebrity Apex was sailing from St. Kitts to Port Canaveral, Fla., when the rescue took place.

At approximately 1:37 a.m. Thursday, Coast Guard watchstanders at Sector San Juan received a communication from the Celebrity Apex cruise ship requesting medevac services.

"After carefully assessing potential risks and hazards and the patient's information, vital signs and time-to-care considerations, the medevac request was granted and arranged to take place at sunrise," the press release said.

A Coast Guard MH-60T Jayhawk helicopter was deployed, and a rescue swimmer with the aircrew went aboard the ship to further assess the situation.

In addition to evacuating the 65-year-old passenger, cruise ship personnel assisted Coast Guard crew members in using a rescue basket to lift the patient's wife onboard the aircraft.

"​​Once the aircrew recovered their rescue swimmer, the patient and his wife were transported to the Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where they were received by awaiting Emergency Medical Service personnel and transported to the Centro Medico Hospital in San Juan," per the press release.

PEOPLE reached out to Celebrity Cruises for comment, but did not immediately receive a response.

Celebrity Apex is a Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star-rated resort at sea, and part of a fleet consisting of Celebrity Edge and Celebrity Beyond.
