Mad Max: Fury Road was a revelation when it launched in 2015, and loads of that may be owed to Charlize Theron’s Furiosa. Even with Max Rocktansky getting high 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.
“Saga” is an apt phrase, it appears. In Empire Magazine’s new write-up on the prequel, the outlet reveals we’ll watch Furiosa—performed right here by Anya Taylor-Pleasure—all through 15 years of her life. “The story is the saga of Furiosa,” defined director/co-writer George Miller, “and the way she will get taken from dwelling, and spends the remainder of her life making an attempt to get again. ”
In that first trailer, which calls the movie Furiosa’s “odyssey” of discovering her method again, you get a way of how a lot time will probably be coated. Not solely will we see Furiosa as a younger youngster and a younger lady donning her black brow paint for the primary time, she additionally has each of her arms. That trailer ends on the sight of the Furiosa will come to know, prosthetic included, and it’ll be attention-grabbing to see how she will get to be an eventual enforcer for Immortan Joe. And whereas it could be a prequel, Miller has no intent of coasting on the virtually 10-year goodwill of that earlier film. “It’s a distinct animal,” he mentioned. “It’s an odyssey. No query.”
15 years is a very long time—Fury Street, for comparability, happened over a few days—and in consequence, Miller teased we’ll be seeing “many alternative areas.” Since that is meant to steer 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 mentioned was the Street Warrior was “lurking within the background. I received’t give away an excessive amount of about that.”
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga releases on Might 24.
