Mad Max: Fury Road was a revelation when it launched in 2015, and lots of that may be owed to Charlize Theron’s Furiosa. Even with Max Rocktansky getting prime billing, it’s extra her film than his, and we’ree now primed to get an origin story with the upcoming Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

And whereas it might be a prequel, Miller has no intent of coasting on the virtually 10-year goodwill of that earlier film. “It’s a special animal,” he stated. “It’s an odyssey. No query.”
15 years is a very long time—Fury Street, for comparability, came about over a few days—and in consequence, Miller teased we’ll be seeing “many various places.” Since that is meant to guide immediately into its predecessor, he was requested if this meant there’d be a cameo from Tom Hardy’s Max at any level within the movie. To that, all he stated was the Street Warrior was “lurking within the background. I received’t give away an excessive amount of about that.”
