Furiosa set her own tragic story in motion.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT As surprising as it sounds, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’s second trailer heavily implies that the Mad Max franchise heroine was instrumental in her own downfall in Mad Max: Fury Road. When viewers met Charlize Theron's Furiosa in 2015’s Fury Road, the heroic character was working for the monstrous warlord Immortan Joe.
Although many Mad Max franchise characters will return in Furiosa, most of them are played by new actors. Furiosa is set long before Fury Road, so the movie’s younger version of its titular heroine will be played by Anya Taylor-Joy. Immortan Joe has also been recast since Mad Max franchise veteran Hugh Keays-Byrne passed away in 2020. Interestingly, Chris Hemsworth stars as a new character, Dementus, who wasn’t seen or mentioned in any earlier Mad Max movies.
Furiosa & Immortan Joe Strike A Deal To Take Out Dementus In The Trailer Furiosa may have helped Fury Road’s villain Immortan Joe come to power Close The second Furiosa trailer clearly sets up an alliance between Furiosa and Immortan Joe that allows Furiosa to kill Dementus, but this deal could come back to haunt Furiosa in years to come.
Fury Road Shows That Furiosa Put An Even Worse Villain On The Throne Furiosa’s story ends in a tragedy the heroine couldn’t have predicted Close Dementus’s defeat would solidify the similarly unhinged, murderous cult leader Immortan Joe's power and control over the region. As such, the tragedy of Furiosa’s story is that she struck a deal to take out one monster only to help install a monster who was arguably even worse.
Furiosa’s story could likely introduce an Immortan Joe who was not yet a terrifying force of nature. If not, Furiosa may not have guessed that he would end up enslaving women and terrorizing the Citadel’s citizens. This could explain why Furiosa eventually betrayed Immortan Joe in Fury Road, as she finally realized that her loyalty to her former employer was not worth such a high moral price.
