New MAD MAX Movie Looking To Cast Jodie Comer as a Young Furiosa
Director George Miller is currently prepping for his next Mad Max film, which will reportedly be a prequel story that will focus on young Furiosa. Well, according to GWW, the studio and director are on the hunt for actors to fill the roles in the film.
The report says that Mad Max: Furiosa is looking to cast Jodie Comer (Killing Eve) in the role of the young Furiosa. The character was previously played by Charlize Theron and Comer definitely has the look of a young Furiosa. Miller has been very keen on telling Furiosa’s backstory, so I’m happy to see that this is something he’s really moving forward with.
Richard Madden (Cinderella, Rocketman) is also wanted for the film, and if cast, he would play “a breathtakingly handsome man with an angel’s face that is scarred by a deep forehead wound stitched together with shiny chrome staples.”
The report also confirms that Yayha Abdul-Mateen II (Aquaman) is on the wishlist for a role in the film as well.
What do you think about Comer possibly taking on the role of a young Furiosa?
