Warner Bros. Pictures has released the new trailer for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, the anticipated May 24, 2024 release starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth.
From Academy Award-winning mastermind George Miller, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is a return to the iconic dystopian world he created more than 30 years ago with the seminal Mad Max films.
Miller now turns the page again with an all-new original, standalone action adventure that will reveal the origins of the powerhouse character from the multiple Oscar-winning global smash Mad Max: Fury Road.
The new feature from Warner Bros. Pictures and Village Roadshow Pictures is produced by Miller and his longtime partner, Oscar-nominated producer Doug Mitchell (Mad Max: Fury Road, Babe), under their Australian-based Kennedy Miller Mitchell banner.
As the world falls, young Furiosa is snatched from the Green Place of Many Mothers and falls into the hands of a great Biker Horde led by the Warlord Dementus. Sweeping through the Wasteland, they come across the Citadel presided over by The Immortan Joe.
While the two Tyrants are in a war for dominance, Furiosa must survive many trials as she puts together the means to find her way home. Anya Taylor-Joy stars in the title role, and along with Chris Hemsworth, the film also stars Alyla Browne and Tom Burke.
George Miller wrote the script with Mad Max: Fury Road co-writer Nico Lathouris. Miller’s behind-the-scenes creative team includes first assistant director PJ Voeten and second unit director and stunt coordinator Guy Norris.
There’s also director of photography Simon Duggan (Hacksaw Ridge, The Great Gatsby), composer Tom Holkenborg, sound designer Robert Mackenzie, editor Eliot Knapman, visual effects supervisor Andrew Jackson, and colorist Eric Whipp.
The team also includes other longtime collaborators: production designer Colin Gibson, editor Margaret Sixel, sound mixer Ben Osmo, costume designer Jenny Beavan, and makeup designer Lesley Vanderwalt, each of whom won an Oscar for their work on Mad Max: Fury Road.
Warner Bros. Pictures is presenting, in association with Village Roadshow Pictures, A Kennedy Miller Mitchell Production and A George Miller Film. The film will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, in theaters only nationwide on May 24, 2024, and internationally beginning on May 22, 2024.
