George Miller talks Mad Max: Fury Road

December 3rd, 2013 by Marc Comments

George Miller has been talking to an Australian newspaper about production on his fourth Mad Max film, Fury Road.

Much has been speculated about the movie in the past year or so however very little official information has been released until recently when it was confirmed that the film will be released in the summer of 2015.

Talking to The Sydney Morning Herald, the director said the film was testing well.

“Our film, luckily after a ridiculous amount of work, is testing extremely well,” he said. ”We’re very happy. There has been a lot of doubt about it, [people saying] ‘it took so long’, but Warners have delayed it until 2015 to go into the top weekend of the year.”

Miller also commented on the rumour that Mel Gibson, the original Mad Max, will cameo in the film saying: ”It would have been nice somehow but, no, it’s not true.”

Mad Max: Fury Road will star Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron and Nicholas Hoult, an will open in 2D and 3D theaters on May 15, 2015.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
