The last few minutes of the see a trio of men dig up Goggins’ Ghoul out of a casket in the ground, where he’s kept alive via a steady drip of chemicals so that he can be removed for work or torture every so often. The leader of the men hoping to acquire the Ghoul’s services is named Honcho, and he’s played by none other than Mykelti Williamson.

If you’re not familiar with Justified, you probably recognize Williamson as Bubba from Forrest Gump. To Justified fans, however, he will always be Ellstin Limehouse. The butcher who ran Noble’s Holler served as one of the main antagonists in Justified Season 3, and returned for a couple of other key stories throughout the rest of the series.

The back-and-forth dialogue between Goggins and Williamson was always wonderful on Justified, and this scene in Fallout makes it clear that their chemistry remains as strong as ever. Williamson even dons a hat similar to the won worn by Limehouse throughout the series. 

Williamson’s appearance in the first episode of Fallout is just the first of many guest spots from popular actors throughout the show’s first season. Some, like Dale Dickey, Michael Emerson, and Chris Parnell were revealed in trailers before the show arrived. There are several others, however, that have been kept under wraps in the lead-up to Fallout‘s premiere. Now that the show is live, however, fans are discovering all the cameos and goodies it has to offer.
