Mad Max, the post-apocalyptic action film series created by George Miller and Byron Kennedy, is set to get its next installment in 2024, with Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

The first film in the series debuted in 1979, followed by three additional installments: Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior, Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, and the Oscar-winning Mad Max: Fury Road.

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga will examine the origins of the 2015 movie’s pivotal character, Imperator Furiosa (played by Charlize Theron in the 2015 film), and answer questions related to her past.

She serves as Immortan Joe’s war captain but rebels against him to rescue The Five Wives. Furiosa’s character has won praise from critics worldwide as a strong female action heroine who introduces feminist ideas to the franchise.

Here is everything we currently know about the dynamic standalone spin-off centering around Furiosa:

Who’s In the Cast of ‘Furiosa’?

A number of acclaimed actors have joined the cast of Furiosa, making the film even more exciting than it already was. The incredibly talented Anya Taylor-Joy will star as a young Imperator Furiosa. Taylor-Joy rose to fame with her role in The VVitch, before going on to star in other high-profile projects, including The Queen’s Gambit, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Split, Last Night in Soho, The Menu, and The Northman. Imperator Furiosa might be her most violent and action-packed role to date, and fans can’t wait to see her in this new guise.

Thor star Chris Hemsworth is also starring in the film, playing the villain, Warlord Dementus. There’s no doubt that Furiosa will be an iconic film for fans as Hemsworth will be seen stepping out of his usual MCU character. Outside of playing Thor, Hemsworth has also starred in the Extraction movies, The Cabin in the Woods, Snow White and the Huntsman, Ghostbusters (2016), and Men in Black: International.
