Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga movie storyline. As the world falls, young Furiosa is snatched from the Green Place of Many Mothers and into the hands of a Biker Horde led by the Warlord Dementus. While two Tyrants war for dominance over the Citadel, Furiosa survives many trials as she plots a way back home through the Wasteland.
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is an American post-apocalyptic action adventure film co-produced and directed by George Miller, who co-wrote it with Nico Lathouris. It serves as both a spin-off and a prequel to Mad Max: Fury Road (2015), as well as the fifth film in the Mad Max franchise. It stars Anya Taylor-Joy as the title character Imperator Furiosa, with Chris Hemsworth also starring.
In March 2020, Miller conducted casting auditions for the title role of the film. In October, Taylor-Joy, Hemsworth and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II were cast in starring roles, but due to a scheduling conflict, Abdul-Mateen was replaced by Burke in November. Several crew members from Fury Road returned for the film, including screenwriter Lathouris, film editor Margaret Sixel, costume designer Jenny Beavan, and composer Tom Holkenborg. Principal photography took place in Australia from June to October 2022.
After multiple different dates were reported for the start of filming, Deadline confirmed in a May 2022 interview with Miller that second unit filming was underway in Australia in advance of principal photography. In May 2022, second unit filming moved to Hay with more scheduled to take place in Silverton. Principal photography began on 1 June 2022, in Australia, and was expected to wrap by September. Filming officially wrapped on 3 November 2022.
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga was released theatrically in Australia on May 23, 2024, and in the United States on May 24, 2024, by Warner Bros. Pictures. It was originally scheduled to be released on June 23, 2023.
