Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is a 2024 post-apocalyptic action adventure film co-produced and directed by George Miller, who co-wrote it with Nico Lathouris. It is the fifth installment in the Mad Max franchise, serving as both a spin-off and prequel to Mad Max: Fury Road (2015). The film stars Anya Taylor-Joy and Alyla Browne as younger versions of the title character Imperator Furiosa, originally portrayed by Charlize Theron. Chris Hemsworth and Tom Burke also star.[2]
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.
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga had its world premiere at the 77th Cannes Film Festival on 15 May 2024, and is scheduled to be released in theatres in Australia by Warner Bros. Pictures and Village Roadshow Pictures on 23 May 2024, and in the United States the following day. The film received highly positive reviews, with critics praising Miller's direction, screenplay, action sequences, musical score, cinematography, and the performances of the cast (particularly Taylor-Joy, Browne and Hemsworth), however, some criticized its visual effects and pacing.
Plot
A young Furiosa is abducted from her homeland, known as the Green Place of Many Mothers, by members of the Horde of the Biker Warlord Dementus. They hope to use Furiosa to find the place of abundance she hails from, but Furiosa keeps it secret and escapes with the help of her mother Mary. Dementus captures Mary and executes her and takes Furiosa as his own. She is encouraged by Dementus’ History Man to make herself invaluable, but she plans to escape back to green. Dementus and his horde run into a war boy while looking for the land of abundance and believe the Citadel he speaks of is the land. They go to the Citadel, where Dementus tries to rally the people there against their leader to his side. The leader turns out to be Immortan Joe, the war boy turns out to be a red herring and they destroy Dementus’ horde, seizing his bikes and weapons as he and a few of his men manage to escape with the young Furiosa.
Dementus rebuilds his horde and executes a plan to seize one of Joe’s war rigs and Gastown. His plan succeeds and he makes a meeting with Joe to rule Gastown in exchange for more food and rations. Joe spies Furiosa, who is not a mutant, and wants her to be a breeder to give birth to a full-life child. He lets Dementus rule Gastown for some concessions and in exchange for Furiosa and the Organic Mechanic, who is originally part of Dementus’ horde.
Furiosa is kept with Joe’s other wives but plans her escape. She tattoos a constellation map back to the Green on her arm with a tattoo kit stolen from the History Man. Rictus Erectus becomes infatuated with Furiosa and tries to befriend her, but while in his lair, she manages to escape after he sees her arm tattoo. He grabs her hair, but she has been shaving it off to make a hair piece as part of her escape and does so as her wig lands on a branch. Time passes and a tree grows where her hair lands. She passes herself off as a mute war boy to learn how to build a War Rig. She goes on a ride to Gastown where she plans her escape and hides food and a motorcycle under the rig. Rogue members of the Dementus Horde attack the Rig. All of the War Boys are killed, but the driver of Joe's "War Rig", Praetorian Jack and Furiosa survive after killing the horde. Jack learns Furiosa is a girl. She tries to kill Jack, but he dumps her off the rig and leaves her on the road. He has a change of heart and offers her a chance to build a new convoy with him as he respects her bravery.
Under Jack, Furiosa gradually grows into an adept soldier and mechanic. Furiosa eventually confides in Jack her dream of returning to the Green Place. Over time, Dementus’ hold on Gastown begins to slip and he can’t fuel the rigs, so he asks to meet with the Immortan. Joe tells Jack and Furiosa to load up on bullets from the Bullet Farm to seize Gastown. However, Dementus seizes the Bullet Farm and ambushes Jack and Furiosa. Their rig is destroyed, and they try to escape only to be captured by Dementus after a hard chase where Furiosa’s arm is nearly severed and the tattoo is destroyed. Dementus tortures and eventually kills Jack as Furiosa is chained by her grisly arm. She eventually frees herself by tearing herself from her arm’s grisly remains with a chain. She stumbles through the desert bleeding out until she is spied from afar by Max eating near his Interceptor from a distance, who presumably picks her up and drops her near a settlement.
Furiosa wakes up near the Citadel, kept by a couple letting maggots feed off her, promising her a painless death. She escapes and tells Immortan Joe of Dementus’ plan to seize control of the Citadel now that he controls Gastown and the Bullet Farm. He believes her and won’t take the bait to leave the Citadel. A war breaks out between Joe and Dementus known as the 40 Day Wasteland War. Furiosa fashions herself a robotic arm out of used machinery, cuts off her long hair and takes a War Boy's ride to personally kill Dementus. She finds him after a long chase, and Dementus taunts her that no revenge she takes on him will give her peace.
A History Man tells the audience Furiosa is believed to have shot him in the head. Others speak of various tortures she could’ve done to gain revenge. But some believe she used her peach seed from the Green Place and turned Dementus into a miserable living peach tree which grows from his mangled and still living remains.
In the end, we see an older Furiosa pick the first peach from the mangled living body tree that was Dementus, and head to the vault where Immortan Joe’s wives wait for her many years later. They sneak aboard Furiosa’s War Rig as they enact their escape from Mad Max Fury Road.
In the credits are shots of Furiosa and the wives leaving as they turn into a montage of scenes from Mad Max Fury Road.

Production
Pre-production
Director George Miller and co-writer Nick Lauthoris spent over 15 years writing the script for Mad Max: Fury Road (2015), and developed backstories for every character, particularly focusing on protagonist Imperator Furiosa.[8] This eventually culminated in a screenplay centered around Furiosa, which actress Charlize Theron, who portrayed Furiosa in Fury Road, used as reference for her performance in the film.[9] In July 2010, Miller announced plans to shoot Fury Road back-to-back with a prequel film entitled Mad Max: Furiosa but it was decided to only shoot the former during pre-production.[10] In November 2017, Miller's production company filed a lawsuit against Warner Bros. over unpaid salaries which delayed the production of any additional entries in the franchise.[11] In July 2019, Miller revealed that a Furiosa film was still being planned in addition to two Mad Max sequels.[12]
By May 2020, Miller planned to develop a prequel Furiosa film after completing his other film Three Thousand Years of Longing (2022). At the same time, he also began the casting process for the role after resolving legal disputes with Warner Bros. Miller sought to cast a younger actress for the role rather than using de-aging technology for Theron.[8] The setting of the film occurs across a timeframe of 15 years, depicting Furiosa's backstory of how she was displaced from her home and spent her life "trying to get back".[9]
In March 2020 amid COVID-19 lockdown, Miller used Skype to conduct casting auditions for the title role of Furiosa.[13] He chose Taylor-Joy after seeing her performance in an early cut of the film Last Night in Soho and auditioning her with the "Mad as Hell" monologue from Sidney Lumet's Network.[14] Taylor-Joy received advice from Nicholas Hoult, who had previously portrayed Nux in Fury Road.[15][16] Tom Burke joined the cast in autumn of 2021, replacing Yahya Abdul-Mateen II for the same role due to a scheduling conflict.[17] Multiple Fury Road crew members agreed to return for the film, including film editor Margaret Sixel, production designer Colin Gibson,[18] composer Junkie XL, sound mixer Ben Osmo, costume designer Jenny Beavan and makeup designer Lesley Vanderwalt.[19][20][21]
In 2021, Alyla Browne was cast as young Furiosa after Miller saw her doing the splits while filming Three Thousand Years of Longing. Miller said that she reminded him of a young Furiosa.[22]
In January 2022, it was reported that Simon Duggan would be serving as cinematographer.[23] In June 2022, it was reported Nathan Jones and Angus Sampson were set to reprise their roles from Fury Road.[24] In August, Quaden Bayles, who worked on Miller's Three Thousand Years of Longing (2022) after a video about his mistreatment at school went viral, was announced to be appearing in Furiosa, in a small role.[25]
Filming
After multiple different dates were reported for the start of filming, Deadline Hollywood confirmed in a May 2022 interview with Miller that second unit filming was underway in Australia in advance of principal photography.[27] The film was awarded a AU$175 million filming incentive,[28] and spent a total of US$233 million (AU$343.2 million) in Australia, the most-ever for a film production in the country.[29] Hemsworth stated that Miller had hired ex-convicts as supporting artists for the film.[30] In May 2022, second unit filming moved to Hay with more scheduled to take place in Silverton.[31] Principal photography began on 1 June 2022, in Australia, and was expected to wrap by September.[32][33] Filming officially wrapped by October 2022.[34] Following production, Taylor Joy declared the film to have been an unpleasant working endeavor, stating: "I’ve never been more alone than making that movie ... I don’t want to go too deep into it, but everything that I thought was going to be easy was hard."[35]
Post-production
In March 2024, it was revealed that Lachy Hulme would portray a younger Immortan Joe in the film,[36] taking over the role from Hugh Keays-Byrne, who had died in 2020 after portraying him in Mad Max: Fury Road.
Mad Max: Fury Road production VFX supervisor Andrew Jackson returns for duty on Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga working with visual effects studios DNEG,[37] Framestore, Rising Sun Pictures and slatevfx.[38] [39]
Release
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on 15 May 2024,[40] and is scheduled to be released theatrically in Australia on 17 May 2024, and in the United States on 24 May 2024, by Warner Bros. Pictures and Village Roadshow Pictures.[41] It was originally scheduled to be released on 23 June 2023.[42]
Reception
Box office projection
In the United States and Canada, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is scheduled to be released alongside The Garfield Movie and Sight, and is projected to gross around $40 million from 3,750 theaters in its four-day opening weekend. The film releases in additional territories over those four days, and is projected to gross a total of $80–85 million worldwide.[43]
Critical response
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 88% of 138 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 8/10. The website's consensus reads: "Retroactively enriching Fury Road with greater emotional heft if not quite matching it in propulsive throttle, Furiosa is another glorious swerve in mastermind George Miller's breathless race towards cinematic Valhalla."[44] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 80 out of 100, based on 45 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.[45]
Writing for RogerEbert.com, Robert Daniels awarded the film 4 out of 4 stars and called it "one of the best prequels ever made". He praised the storyline, action sequences, and performances.[46] Pete Hammond of Deadline viewed the movie as possessing "the best screenplay of any Mad Max film".[47] Other reviewers lauded the acting, with The Guardian's Peter Bradshaw calling Anya Taylor-Joy "an overwhelmingly convincing action heroine".[48] Writing for Empire magazine, John Nugent awarded the film 5 out of 5 stars, and described Taylor-Joy as "phenomenal", finding the "right balance of steeliness and fractured humanity that Theron instilled".[49] Chris Hemsworth also received acclaim for his portrayal of Dementus, with Jada Yuan writing in The Washington Post that Hemsworth had "created one of the all-time-great screen villains".[50]
In a critical review, Owen Gleiberman of Variety perceived Furiosa as filled with "pretension" and as "franchise overkill".[51] Nicholas Barber of BBC also disliked some aspects of the movie and gave it 3 out of 5 stars. He viewed the plot as meandering and as draining, writing: "You soon reach the point where you're sick of sand, sick of explosions, sick of off-puttingly sadistic violence."[52] Stephanie Zacharek's review in Time similarly criticized the film as "a slog that's working hard to persuade us we're having a good time".[53]
