‘Furiosa’ launches the official synopsis of the ‘Mad Max’ spin-off and provides details on the origin of the protagonist

On June 20 we were able to take a brief look at the first images from the shooting set of ‘Furiosa’, the spin-off in the form of a prequel to ‘Mad Max’ which will tell the story of the character that Charlize Theron played in ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ and which will star Anya Taylor-Joy. It will once again have George Miller at the controls, who co-wrote the script with Nick Lathouris. Beyond these brief details and the rest of the cast (complemented by names like Chris Hemsworth, Tom Burke, Angus Sampson and Nathan Jones), little was known about the plot. The official synopsis of the film has been released so far.

The synopsis, which tells us that the evil Immortan Joe returns, delves into the story of the origins of Furiosa, promising a situation in which the protagonist finds herself in the middle of a battle between two Warlords of the wastelands. Furthermore, it seems clear that the spin-off will explain more about Green Place, a mythical place mentioned in Miller’s 2015 film, as well as the new villain Dementus, whose first appearance was in the video game of the same name for Play Station.

According to Collider, the official synopsis is as follows. “As the world collapses, Young Furiosa is kidnapped from the Green Place of Many Mothers and falls into the hands of a large Biker Horde led by Warlord Dementus. On a tour of the Wasteland they come across the Citadel, presided over by Immortan Joe. As the two tyrants fight for dominance in the area, Furiosa must survive many trials as she searches for a way to find her way home. “.

Same team

With 6 Oscars out of 10 nominations, “Mad Max: Fury Road” was a real success that reconfigured the debate on the latest sequels to the classics of the last century. Maybe that’s why Miller wanted to have a virtually identical team again for this new installment. The scenography will be handled again by Colin Gibson, while the editing and editing will be handled by Margaret Sixel. Produced by Kennedy Miller and Warner Bros. The film will see the light, if all goes according to plan, in May 2024.
