The rumors appear to true, plus one Charlize Theron.This according to THR, who reports Theron and Hardy are in talks to star in Fury Road, the 4th film in the Mad Max series.
As for the plot, there’s precious little: “the movie does take place a short while after the story detailed after 1985’s “Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome,” which keeps Mad Max relatively young.” [THR]
The film will be an Australian-produced with a distributor in Warner Bros., with shooting set to start next summer in the land down under.
Hardy has already proven himself as leading man in Bronson, an all-style kind of film which is anchored thanks to the young actor’s abundant charisma.
Hopefully, he can bring the same amount to this iconic character.
What do you think of this news? Is Mad Max worth rebooting?
