![]() ![]() Miller recently wrapped Three Thousand Years of Longing, starring Idris Elba and Tilda Swinton, in Sydney. The announcement comes a week after Federal Government backtracked on its decision to harmonise the Producer Offset for film and television, keeping the offset at 40 per cent for theatrical features.įletcher said the decision was “significant factor” in getting the production to proceed. The creative team includes production designer Colin Gibson, editor Margaret Sixel, sound mixer Ben Osmo and makeup designer Lesley Vanderwalt, as well as first assistant director PJ Voeten and second unit director and stunt coordinator Guy Norris. Hemsworth and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II are the only other members of the cast to be announced as yet. Written by Miller and Nick Lathouris, Furiosa stars Anya Taylor-Joy in the titular role of the story about how the renegade warrior came to team up with Mad Max in Fury Road. “They made it possible for the film to be greenlit, shot in Australia and for the production to be based in our home state.” “We are entirely grateful to the NSW Government and for the advice and help extended to us by Graeme Mason, CEO of Screen Australia, and Grainne Brunsdon, head of Screen NSW,” he said. Miller said the support of both governments was “pivotal”. The new film is described, 'As the world fell, young Furiosa is snatched from the Green Place. Star Chris Hemsworth, Miller, and producer Doug Mitchell joined NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian, Federal Minister for Communications, Urban Infrastructure, Cities and the Arts Paul Fletcher, NSW Arts Minister Don Harwin, and NSW Treasurer Dominic Perrottet in announcing the location for the project, which is being funded via NSW Government’s $175 million Made in NSW fund and PDV Rebate, as well as the Federal Government’s 40 per cent Producer Offset.įuriosa will be produced by Kennedy Miller Mitchell Films, and financed by Warner Bros./Village Roadshow for worldwide distribution. Check out the new set photos below before Mad Max: Furiosa lands in theaters on May 24, 2024. Set to be shot across multiple locations in Western Sydney and regional NSW, the film is expected to be the biggest ever made in Australia, creating 850 jobs and injecting at least $350 million into the local economy. Fingers crossed that exploring her backstory doesn’t take away from the character’s mystique in the film.George Miller’s Mad Max: Fury Road prequel Furiosa has been added to Australia’s list of high-profile productions, with filming on the origin story to commence in NSW in June. Issue two is apparently entirely about Furiosa, which sounds pretty excellent. In between, we get a bit of insight into some of the more vague terminology used in the movie (the Bullet Farm is a lead mine for example), as well as an expanded explanation on why his Wives are so important to him. It touches on how he gathered his initial forces, before focusing on his conquest of the Citadel. According to this story, the Immortan’s real name is Colonel Joe Moore (hence those medals), a veteran of the Oil Wars, and later, what’s referred to as the Water Wars. The second half of the issue is likewise a prequel, this time charting the rise to power of Immortan Joe himself. It’s short and sweet, and lends a bit of insight into what life is like for those living on the ground floor of Immortan Joe’s empire. When Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron filmed Mad Max: Fury Road back in 2015, they didnt mince words about the struggles that came with their filming experience. The first focuses on Nux, revealing how he became a War Boy, and the strange sort of familial camaraderie that binds that group together. Tattooed on his entire body are stories, or “Word Burgers” (the synopsis for Fury Road mentions it’s “based on the Word Burgers of the History Men,” George Miller is very fond of silly words). Miller collaborated with Brendan McCarthy and Nico Lathouris on the screenplay. Both are narrated by a “History Man,” apparently a living surrogate for a lack of books and recording devices. Mad Max: Fury Road is a 2015 Australian post-apocalyptic action film co-written, co-produced, and directed by George Miller. The first issue features two stories, both set decades before the events of the movie. Some story details follow, so if you don’t want to be spoiled, just know that the comic is a pretty interesting addition to the world of Mad Max, and worth checking out if you’re interesting in exploring it further. If you’d prefer more concrete answers though, or you’re just looking to explore that universe a bit more before the eventual sequel, there’s a new Vertigo comic series that begins today that should help. ![]() Mad Max: Fury Road doesn’t waste much time with exposition, leaving you to create your own backstory for the crazy world we glimpsed in that movie (although we did try to make sense of some of it here). ![]()
