George Miller: Last News

Nine years after “Mad Max: Fury Road” blazed madly on screen, reinvigorating the “Mad Max” franchise in the process, filmmaker George Miller’s “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga” is just a few short weeks from release. Set for a May 24 release, we’ll get word even sorry in mid-May at the Cannes Film Festival, where the film will make its world premiere.

CANNES – George Miller’s “Furiosa” got a warm reception from global critics and the Cannes Film Festival faithful last night, and it already has many wondering if another “Mad Max” film is in the works. Miller has often told the story about how “Fury Road: A Mad Max Saga” was only made after scripts provided the back stories for Furiosa (originally played by Charlize Theron) and Max (Tom Hardy) were completed.

Few films hitting theaters in 2024 have more hyped-up horsepower behind them than “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.”  And there’s good reason for that: George Miller‘s prequel to 2015’s “Mad Max: Fury Road” has a tough act to follow.  “Fury Road” is one of the greatest action movies ever, a modern classic that’s part tour de force, part technical marvel, part pulpy sublime.   Continue reading ‘Furiosa’: Anya Taylor-Joy Boasts That George Miller’s ‘Mad Max’ Prequel Has A 15-Minute Action Sequence That Took 78 Days To Shoot at The Playlist.

Yesterday, Warner Bros. kicked off CinemaCon 2024 in Las Vegas with the first big studio panel, igniting a wave of excitement among fans of the “Mad Max” franchise.

Largely beloved upon its arrival in 2015, George Miller’s “Mad Max: Fury Road” is now considered a 21st-century classic. And while the adrenaline-pounding film was supposed to be a Mad Max story, clearly one of the more compelling characters was Charlize Theron’s Furiosa, who went toe to toe with Tom Hardy’s Max in the movie.

“Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga” isn’t due in theaters until the beginning of the summer. However, given that it is most likely making its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in mid-May, the promotional machine for the George Miller-directed film is already underway.
