Exciting news for fans of the dystopian world of Mad Max, the much-anticipated prequel ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga,' is getting closer to its theatrical debut. Notably, with just a few months to go, an exhilarating new trailer is now available online for fans to enjoy.
Furiosa's Journey Unraveled
‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga' is directed by esteemed director George Miller. Co-written with Nico Lathouris, the movie is about young Furiosa, who is abducted from her original home, the Green Place of Many Mothers. She subsequently falls into the clutches of the Warlord Dementus and his Biker Horde. The epic journey takes them through the Wasteland to the Citadel, ruled by Immortan Joe. Amidst a power struggle between the two tyrants, Furiosa faces a series of trials to find a way home, with the narrative spanning a period of fifteen years.
Familiar Faces in New Roles
Anya Taylor-Joy of ‘The Witch' fame takes over from Charlize Theron, portraying title character Furiosa in the upcoming prequel. Lachy Hulme of ‘Offspring', reprising the role of Fury Road's villain Immortan Joe previously played by the late Hugh Keays-Byrne, will also play another character named Rizzdale Pell, a gang member associated with Dementus. Described as an evil character, Dementus is embodied by Chris Hemsworth, popular for his role as Thor.
Further Cast Details
The prequel's ensemble cast also includes Tom Burke of ‘C.B. Strike' and Quaden Bayles from ‘Three Thousand Years of Longing'. Alyla Browne of ‘The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart' will be seen playing a young Furiosa. Fans of ‘Fury Road' can also expect to see Nathan Jones and Angus Sampson returning in their original roles of Rictus Erectus and The Organic Mechanic, heightening the impressive cast line-up.
Teasing Mad Max's Future
Although being tight-lipped about if Mad Max will appear in this prequel, Miller did tease fans by mentioning, “Max is lurking there in the background”. What does this mean? We will have to wait and watch.
Additionally, Mad Max followers have more to cheer. Miller has confirmed another Mad Max story in the works. Presumably, it could be the ‘Mad Max: The Wasteland' story, hinted at occasionally since the release of ‘Fury Road'. As ‘Furiosa' makes its way to the big screen, fans will be eager to see if either Miller or a potential protégé could expedite the production of ‘Mad Max: The Wasteland'.
