Gibson would go on to star in two follow-up movies, Mad Max 2 in 1981, and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome in 1985, before being recast with Tom Hardy for 2015’s Mad Max: Fury Road.
The Queen’s Gambit star Anya Taylor-Joy has been cast in the role of the younger version of Furiosa, taking over from Mad Max: Fury Road star Charlize Theron.
Mad Max prequel, Furiosa, is set to be the biggest movie shoot in Australia’s history, and star Chris Hemsworth has admitted that he is feeling a “lot of pressure” to do the franchise proud.
“Whereas Fury Road essentially happened over three days and two nights, this happens over many years,” Miller revealed.
