Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga
Release Date: May 24 (in theaters)
Stars: Anya Taylor-Joy, Chris Hemsworth
Director: George Miller
Nearly ten years after director George Miller seared our corneas with the Oscar-nominated Mad Max: Fury Road, the filmmaker is back for more blood and chrome with Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, a prequel set in the Wasteland and centered on one of modern cinema’s most iconic heroines. This time, Anya Taylor-Joy takes over for Charlize Theron in the role as Miller propels us full throttle into the complex character’s compelling origins, with a villainous (and almost unrecognizable) Chris Hemsworth in hot pursuit as the villainous Dementus.
