FURIOSA Is a 15-Year Odyssey Which Runs Directly Into MAD MAX: FURY ROAD — GeekTyrant

George Miller has offered some additional details on his upcoming film Furiosa: A Max Max Saga that is sure to get fans excited about what we can expect from this awesome-looking movie!

The filmmaker revealed that the story this film tells takes place over the course of 15 years and that it leads directly into the events of Mad Max: Fury Road. Miller shared:

“The story is the saga of Furiosa, and how she gets taken from home, and spends the rest of her life trying to get back. [In] Fury Road, the story unfolds over three days and two nights. This film follows the story that runs directly into Fury Road, for 15 years.”

Well, this sounds like it’s going to be an insanely epic story! Miller goes on to hype it saying, “It’s a different animal. It’s got many different locations. It’s an odyssey. No question.”

Miller has been looking to make this move for a very long time and original Furiosa star Charlize Theron even tried to get Miller to make the movie while he was prepping Fury Road. George explained: “She said, ‘Please, George, can we make this first?’ It was the first time I realized that there’s something really strong in this story.” Now Anya Taylor-Joy has taken on the role with Theron’s blessing. When talking about that Taylor-Joy said:

“She’s been so classy and kind in letting me go and do it. But I feel very lucky that, from the second I read the script, I just knew this person. I felt so fiercely protective over Furiosa, and fiercely protective of her interests. I was so excited to shave my head. Then George saw me in real life, and went, ‘No, we can’t!’”

As for a possible appearance from Max Rockatansky himself, Miller said: “I won’t give away too much about that. All I’ll say is, Max is lurking there in the background.”

In the film, “As the world fell, young Furiosa is snatched from the Green Place of Many Mothers and falls into the hands of a great Biker Horde led by the Warlord Dementus. Sweeping through the Wasteland they come across the Citadel presided over by The Immortan Joe. While the two Tyrants war for dominance, Furiosa must survive many trials as she puts together the means to find her way home.”
