Anya Taylor-Joy leads the fifth instalment in the Mad Max franchise, Furiosa.Directed by George Miller, Furiosa serves as a prequel to 2015’s Mad Max: Fury Road and charts the origins of the character, who was originally played by Charlize Theron.Other cast members in the prequel include Chris Hemsworth, Alyla Browne, Tom Burke, Lachy Hulme, Nathan Jones, and Josh Helman.Along with directing Furiosa, Miller has co-written the story with his former Fury Road collaborator Nico Lathouris.After tracking down Dementus (Chris Hemsworth) following the 40-day wasteland war, Furiosa (Anya Taylor-Joy) confronts him and tries to make him remember who she is.When he eventually does remember that she is the girl he kidnapped years prior, Dementus is impressed and tells her he’s been waiting for someone worthy of him. “Do this right, and you become me,” he remarks while on his knees, before adding: “The question is, do you have it in you to make it epic?”Through a narrator, we discover Furiosa doesn’t actually kill Dementus straight away, as described in various rumours and fables.

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga doesn’t miss Max, who cedes the spotlight in this installment to the fearsome post-apocalyptic female warrior Furiosa, introduced in George Miller’s 2015 Oscar-winner Mad Max: Fury Road.But this movie is missing something, because, although it looks and sounds impressive, it doesn’t approach the pulse-pounding potency of Fury Road.In that film, Mad Max-meister Miller undergirded the bone-crushing vehicular mayhem with compelling purpose. Furiosa, then portrayed by Charlize Theron, was on a mission to free the enslaved wives of water-hoarding tyrant Immortan Joe, chillingly played by Hugh Keays-Byrne.She also had her own score to settle with Joe, and did, by summarily sending his lower jaw flying off in a different direction than the rest of his face.For Furiosa, Miller and returning Fury Road co-writer Nick Lathouris rewind the clock to recount their heroine’s harrowing origin story.

The list goes on.”He also spoke about his performance at Glastonbury and said he never expected the Boss to show up.“Springsteen is a Dutch name. Did you know that? In Dutch it means man in charge.
