Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga: Sequel to “Fury Road,” Starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth–May 24

Battle Against Chris Hemsworth in ‘Furiosa’ Trailer

Warner Bros. will release the prequel to Mad Max: Fury Road on May 24.

Anya Taylor-Joy is gearing up to seek vengeance against Chris Hemsworth in the latest trailer for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

Warner released the new footage Tuesday from George Miller’s dystopian action epic that hits theaters May 24. The fifth film in the Mad Max franchise, Furiosa is a prequel to 2015’s Oscar-winning hit Mad Max: Fury Road and stars Taylor-Joy as Imperator Furiosa, played in the previous movie by Charlize Theron.

The new film centers on Furiosa (Taylor-Joy), who is abducted in her younger years by Warlord Dementus (Hemsworth) and prepares herself to find her way back home to the Green Place of Many Mothers.

Later, Hemsworth can be heard exclaiming, “Where are you going, so full of hope? There is no hope!”

Miller, who originated the franchise with 1979’s Mad Max that starred Mel Gibson, directed Furiosa from a script he wrote with Nico Lathouris. Miller and Doug Mitchell serve as producers.

Mad Max: Fury Road revitalized the franchise in 2015 with a cast that included Theron, Tom Hardy, Nicholas Hoult, Riley Keough and Zoë Kravitz.

The film surpassed $375 million at the global box office and collected six Oscars.
