‘Furiosa’: Everything we know about the prequel to ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’

After years of rumours, delays, false hopes and even lawsuits between George Miller and Warner, the prequel to ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’, ‘Furiosa’ is already filming in Australia.

The ‘Mad Max’ saga returns to its country of origin after the previous installment was shot in the Namibian desert and, according to its director, It will be “the biggest ever shot” on Australian soil.

Let’s remember that ‘Fury Road’ premiered at the Cannes Film Festival (out of competition) and was a complete success, winning up to 6 Oscars, with spectacular chase scenes that will be very difficult to beat.

‘Furiosa’ will focus on a younger version of the character played by Charlize Theron in ‘Fury Road’‘, and according to George Miller himself it will cover a time span of several years.

“As the world fell, the young Furiosa is snatched from the Green Place of Many Mothers and falls into the hands of a great Biker Horde led by the Warlord Dementus.“, says the official description of the plot. “Touring the Wasteland, they come across the Citadel presided over by Immortan Joe. As the two Tyrants battle for dominance, Furiosa must survive many trials as she musters the means to find her way home.“.

Anya Taylor-Joy will be the young ‘Furiosa’, after Miller scrapped his initial idea of ​​digitally rejuvenating Charlize Theron. The actress will play the young warrior and, while promoting Edgar Wright’s ‘Last Night in Soho’, she stated that she couldn’t be more excited.

“George is incredibly generous and very passionate. I love working with him. He is simply the best,” he said. “I think my preparation is just about becoming strong enough to be able to carry this movie. That’s what it is. It is emotional strength, it is physical strength, it is mental strength. I can not wait. I’m so excited. I wouldn’t do ‘Mad Max’ if there weren’t vehicles of some kind.”

Chris Hemsworth, the very God of Thunder from Marvel who premieres ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’, will be the co-star in an unconfirmed role, taking over from Tom Hardy. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II had been announced as another cast member, but has finally been replaced by Tom Burke due to scheduling problems.
