Furiosa Production Begins, According To Chris Hemsworth

Actor Chris Hemsworth has seemingly confirmed via Twitter that production has officially begun on Furiosa, the upcoming spin-off and prequel to 2015's Mad Max: Fury Road. Hemsworth is set to co-star with Tom Burke (The Crown) and Anya Taylor-Joy (The Queen's Gambit).

Furiosa is expected to be a "saga [that] happens over many years" according to director George Miller in the recently released 2022 book "Blood, Sweat & Chrome: The Wild and True Story of Mad Max: Fury Road." To date, this book is only insight into what Furiosa may have in store--the book also revealed that Hemsworth will likely be playing the upcoming film's villain. Even then, Miller was extremely tight-lipped about what's in store with the film, only saying Hemsworth is "going to play totally against type [as] the lead baddie." However, it is known that Taylor-Joy will portray a younger version of the character played by Charlize Theron in the 2015 film.
