George Miller is Still Planning To Make a MAD MAX: FURY ROAD Sequel
George Miller is currently preparing to shoot his Mad Max: Fury Road prequel film Furiosa with Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth. That film will focus on the character originally played by Charlize Theron. But, that’s not the only story in the Mad Max universe that Miller is looking to tell!
Miller is still planning on making a sequel to Fury Road, which is titled Mad Max: The Wasteland. He recently said in an interview with Variety: "We do have another story but it's still not fully evolved. We'll see further down the chain."
There aren’t any details on what this sequel will entail, but Tom Hardy initially signed a three-picture deal for the franchise. So, unless that’s changed, we’ll most likely see him back in the role of Max Rocksteady. All I know is that I love the Mad Max franchise and the fact Miller is making more films set in that universe is awesome and exciting!
Miller also offered an update on Furiosa, which has started shooting in Australia. He said: "I'll tell you how it's going when it's finished, but it has got off to a lovely start. All I can say about my excitement about doing it is that it's definitely exciting, because even though it's certainly of that world of Fury Road, it's also got a lot of the differences we've been talking about. Again, it's uniquely familiar. And probably the biggest difference is the timespan. Fury Road happened over three days and two nights and this one happens over 15 years. So, it's a saga."
I can’t wait to see what Miller has planned for this franchise, and the future stories he’s looking to tell! The first of which is Furiosa, which will open in theaters on May 24th, 2024.
