News on the Fury Road : "The Wasteland" & "Furiosa"

[MWFV8]

Headline: Mad Max Fury Road sequel won't star Charlize Theron's Imperator Furiosa

First line: Charlize Theron's Imperator Furiosa, chief scene-stealer in Mad Max Fury Road, may not be appearing at all in the proposed sequel.

Just what has journalism become?

Nothing is worse than the moronic reporter who couldn't hear what George was saying so she just made up that he wasn't making anymore movies.

This is coming from the gossip page of the Herald Sun. As such, it's difficult for me to take seriously.

Mad Max prequel coming to Australia

FUEL up! The next Mad Max is returning to Australia for the latest instalment of the dystopian juggernaut.

The prequel to Mad Max: Fury Road starring TOM HARDY will be filmed in and around Broken Hill. Director GEORGE MILLER is known for keeping any developments with his projects closely guarded secrets, but Page 13 has the inside scoop from a highly placed onset source.

Pre-production is gearing up on the multi-million-dollar action-packed Warner Bros franchise, with NSW’s Broken Hill Studios Miller’s first choice for shooting, which could start as soon as later this year. Mad Max 4 was plagued by delays when extended rain turned the desert green and the uber director had to move location to Namibia.

But now Broken Hill is back on the barren horizon for the next post-apocalyptic instalment, with the working title Mad Max: The Wasteland. The studio all but confirmed the exciting news, before citing a well-rehearsed line: “We would certainly welcome Mad Max coming back to its spiritual home.”

The script is said to focus on the backstory of Furiosa, played by Oscar winner CHARLIZE THERON.

Hardy and Theron were famously at loggerheads during Fury Road. Method actor Hardy was said to be difficult, but nothing compared with high-maintenance Theron. But after the runaway success of Mad Max 4, the Monster actor is said to be chomping at the bit to be part of the blockbuster, opening her schedule and losing some of the ’tude.

No word yet if original road warrior MEL GIBSON will make an appearance but there would be no need to fear a Mad Mel tirade given the franchise’s scripts are famously word wastelands.

Well then....the game is afoot once again!!!

Hopefully. I mean I thought the actual paper and columns were supposed to be legit or is their Page 13 a bit notorious for BS?

EDIT: I'm trying to get Drew and Harry to dig into this because they'd be in positions to get more info if this were true or not.

[Taipan]

I need to ask my sources about this.

I need to ask my sources about this.

That would be wonderful! lol

[Taipan]

This seems to be news for people who worked on Fury Road before and are pretty close to Miller.

[Taipan]

I just got intel from my source that works literally 30 feet from KMM office and they haven't heard anything about this yet.

EDIT:
Even more info coming in, everything points to that article being full of s**t.

[DGSimo]

Well...bugger.
