Mad Max: Fury Road

[cherokeesam]

It is still the last of the V8s. This film is set before The Road Warrior.

Really? I didn't know that.
Although I could definitely believe it. Looks like gas isn't quite as scarce in Fury Road as it is in Road Warrior.

 

[venus_ice]

Seriously, I need some Hardy pics now.

 

[Clu]

link to where its a fact that it takes place before road warrior? all reports are saying its a reboot /continuation.

 

[obin_gam]

I heard it is neither a reboot/sequel or anything like that, that it's just a Mad Max film set in a Mad Max world. A stand alone story where it doesnt matter when it's set.

 

[Symbiotic]

Are they filming 2 movies at the same time, or just 1?

 

[Jake Cassidy]

I heard he's going to use his Bane voice.

I hope not. The backlash in Australia would be incredible.

 

[kennerado]

Are they filming 2 movies at the same time, or just 1?

Since its a 9 month shoot, I would think so but one of the producers was quoted as saying depending on the success of Fury Road they were going to film the sequels in Australia.

 

[craigdbfan]

It probably is a midquel like Taffy said.

 

[DrDoom]

Wonder if they'll mention Electric or Hybrid cars at all.

There have been alot of advancements in vehicles since the original trilogy.

 

[craigdbfan]

Seeing as it might take place before Roadwarrior (which would make sense) I doubt they will.

 

[Simo]

Since its a 9 month shoot, I would think so but one of the producers was quoted as saying depending on the success of Fury Road they were going to film the sequels in Australia.

According to Go For Location, a film location scouting management company, filming for Fury Road is set to end in December and then immediately after the production team and cast will return to work on the shoot for the sequel:

...that "Mad Max 5" will be filming immediately after Fury Road wraps with "Mad Max 6" in script development....

Yet another shot of vehicles. I hope those aren't mounted machine guns.

Mel Gibson gives Tom Hardy his blessing.

Hardy and Miller on set

 

[biolumen]

That's not George Miller, just some random resident of Swakopmund.

This is what Miller looks like.

The studio must be confident in Fury Road if a sequel is going to film so quickly.

 

[craigdbfan]

Or desperate for tentpole franchises.

Mad Max: Fury Road - Synopsis & Characters Revealed

Principal photography began 9 July on the dystopian action adventure “Mad Max: Fury Road,” a Kennedy Miller Mitchell production written and directed by “Mad Max” creator and Academy Award(R) winner George Miller (“Happy Feet”). The film will be presented by Warner Bros. Pictures in association with Village Roadshow Pictures. It will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company, and in select territories by Village Roadshow Pictures.

“Mad Max: Fury Road”–the fourth in the franchise’s history–stars Tom Hardy (“The Dark Knight Rises”) in the title role of Max Rockatansky, alongside Oscar(R) winner Charlize Theron (“Monster”, “Prometheus”) 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: Fury Road” also stars Nicholas Hoult (“X-Men: First Class”) as Nux; Hugh Keays-Byrne (“Mad Max,” “Sleeping Beauty”) as Immortan Joe; and Nathan Jones (“Conan the Barbarian”) as Rictus Erectus. Collectively known as The Wives, Zoe Kravitz (“X-Men: First Class”) plays Toast, Riley Keough (“Magic Mike”) is Capable, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (“Transformers: Dark of the Moon”) is Splendid. They are joined by supermodel Abbey Lee Kershaw as The Dag and Courtney Eaton as Fragile, both of whom are making their big screen debuts. Also featured in the movie are Josh Helman as Slit, Jennifer Hagan as Miss Giddy, and singer/songwriter/performer iOTA as Coma-Doof Warrior.

The cast is rounded out by well-known Australian actors John Howard, Richard Carter, supermodel Megan Gale, Angus Sampson, Joy Smithers, Gillian Jones, Melissa Jaffer and Melita Jurisic.

Miller is directing the film from a screenplay he wrote with Brendan McCarthy and Nico Lathouris. Miller also produces the film, along with longtime producing partner, Oscar(R) nominee Doug Mitchell (“Babe,” “Happy Feet”), and P.J. Voeten. Iain Smith, Graham Burke and Bruce Berman serve as executive producers.

The behind-the-scenes creative team includes Academy Award(R)-winning director of photography John Seale (“The English Patient”); action unit director and stunt coordinator Guy Norris (“Australia”); editor Margaret Sixel (“Happy Feet”); production designer Colin Gibson (“Babe”); Oscar(R)-winning costume designer Jenny Beavan (“A Room with a View”); and makeup designer Lesley Vanderwalt (“Knowing”).

Shooting on “Mad Max: Fury Road” is taking place in Africa with the support of the Australian government. Originally slated to be shot in Broken Hill, New South Wales, Australia, the production was forced to relocate due to severe flooding, rendering the Australian landscape unsuitable for the film. The rain turned the area into an oasis instead of the post-apocalyptic terrain that is the setting for Max’s world.

God, I hope Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has a minor, minor role in this.

Otherwise the casting and plot-synopsis looks fine.

 

[Brian Braddock]

She'll have a minor role, but her lips will be major.
