The Mad Max: Fury Road prequel starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth is out Friday.
When a film is a huge success, we often imagine studios pressuring filmmakers to follow it up. “Get the sequel out fast,” is the prevailing thought. And while sometimes that happens with varying degrees of success, George Miller told io9 he didn’t feel any pressure to follow up Mad Max : Fury Road after that film’s success. He just kind of had to, deep in his bones. And so Furiosa : A Mad Max Saga was born. As most people know, the first seeds of Furiosa came in the development of Fury Road.
You feel a gravitational pull to stories or a compulsion to tell a story. I’m a habitual storyteller. I started as a little kid and now it’s just part of how I work and how I am. The stories compete in your head, almost, in a Darwinian way. And some of them, you’re saying, ‘You know, this is the one that I most want to tell at this point.’ And that’s just how it happens. And luckily, the planets aligned, and we were able to sort of do it.” Miller calls the current Warner Bros.
