Furiosa’s release date has been pushed by a year. It was scheduled to be released on June 23, 2023, but now it will come on May 24, 2024, which is Memorial Day. This movie is a prequel to Mad Max: Fury Road. Furiosa has gained the public’s interest very quickly, and it is obvious that expectations are also more. George Miller is the writer of the movie, and Doug Mitchell will be our producer.
The character of Furiosa was introduced in Mad Max: Fury Road and was originally played by Charlize Theron. Particular details of this spin-off movie are yet to come; till then, let’s take a look at what all we know till now.
Release Date
In recent days some changes have been made regarding the release date of the movie. According to a report, the release date has been postponed to May 24, 2024. Initially, the movie had a release date of June 23, 2023. This obviously means that fans will have to wait for yet another year. Details regarding the delayed release date haven’t been told.
Reserving the summer release of this spin-off movie might prove fruitful to Warner Bros as that will be the busiest moment of the year. Moreover, the release date will be in line with Mad Max: Fury Road that was released around the same time in 2015.
Cast
Anna Taylor-Joy, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, and Chris Hemsworth will be seen working together as lead roles in this much-awaited film. Apart from these three actors, less is known regarding others’ roles. Much hasn’t been revealed regarding who’ll play what in the movie.
Charlize Theron had played a great role in Mad Max: Fury Road, but Furiosa is handed over to Oscar-winning Anna Taylor-Joy. However, she’s a little less experienced than Theron but has shown great potential in the past. All eyes are on her now, and she for sure wouldn’t disappoint us. Furiosa’s production work will be done in 2022 in New South Wales. It’s not wrong to say that this will be the biggest production happening in Australia.
Plot
Again, details regarding the plot haven’t been disclosed, but Miller, the mastermind behind Mad Max, has confirmed that the prequel will explore the roots of Joe and that the movie will take a multi-year leap. Thinking about all this, we can say that Furiosa will be different from other contemporary action movies.
Other Details
Production of the movie aims to give AUD 350M to Australia’s local economy and provide 850 jobs. Isn’t that a great thing? Mad Max: Fury Road premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in 2015 and collected $357M. Not only that, it also took six Oscars home. Same expectations are being held for Furiosa. Will it be able to withstand the records made by Mad Max: Fury Road? To know that, we’ll have to wait for almost two and a half years.
