At the panel discussion, Chris Hemsworth expressed his awe at the movie’s remarkable production quality: “I’ve never been on a set that felt both intimidating, loud, noisy, exhausting, and yet completely safe and in control.”
Anya Taylor-Joy, portraying the younger version of Furiosa, echoed Hemsworth’s sentiments and assured fans that the movie would uphold the legacy of its predecessor, “Mad Max: Fury Road,” in its commitment to practical effects. “George is fully running and completely in control of three full units,” she remarked proudly. “Everything on screen has been hand-painted by George.”
Director George Miller provided insights into the narrative foundation of Furiosa’s cinematic adventure, revealing that the storyline had been brainstormed alongside the development of “Fury Road.” He explained, “In order to tell the story in ‘Mad Max: Fury Road,’ we had to know everything that happened before it.” He also confirmed that the narrative will stretch over a considerable timeline, saying, “This story will span across 16 to 18 years.” This intricate planning includes details of how Furiosa was separated from the Green Place of her origins and the series of events leading to her transformation into the fearless warrior we admire.
Anya Taylor-Joy paid homage to Charlize Theron’s original embodiment of Furiosa, a portrayal so powerful it eclipsed the film’s main character and ignited the demand for this very origin story. Taylor-Joy praised the opportunity to step into those shoes: “This is the story of one woman’s relentless commitment to impossible hope,” she said. “It was such an honor to play this character.”
