“Mad Max: Fury Road” Details



Mad Max creator George Miller’s fourth installment of the Apocalyptic action series “Mad Max: Fury Road” began filming back in July. The film sees Tom Hardy in the lead role playing the unstable force of justice Max Rockatansky with Charlize Theron coming onboard as Imperator Furiosa. According to Miller, "Mad Max is caught up with a group of people fleeing across the Wasteland in a War Rig driven by the Imperator Furiosa. This movie is an account of the Road War which follows. It is based on the Word Burgers of the History Men and eyewitness accounts of those who survived."

Mad-Max-Theatrical-Poster-151695_222x336Shooting on “Fury Road” is taking place in Africa due to wide spread regional flooding in the New South Wales area originally chosen for the film. The landscape no longer suited the prominent landscape associated with the future setting of the film. Thankfully a secondary location was found and with the assistance of the Australian government the film was moved. Miller is directing this film from a screenplay he wrote with Brendon McCarthy and Nico Lathouris.

“Mad Max: Fury Road” will also star Nicholas Hoult as Nux, Hugh Keays-Byrne as Immortan Joe and Nathan Jones as Rictus Erectus. Playing “The Wives” will be Zoe Kravitz as Toast, Riley Keough as Capable and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley as Splendid. Making their big screen debut will be supermodel Abbey Lee Kershaw as The Dag and Courtney Eaton as Fragile. Josh Helman will play Slit, Jennifer Hagan as Miss Giddy and singer/songwriter iOTA is playing Coma-Doof Warrior. Also in the cast are well known Australian actors John Howard, Richard Carter, supermodel Megan Gale, Angus Sampson, Joy Smithers, Gillian Jones, Melissa Jaffer and Melita Jurisic.
