‘Mad Max: Fury Road’, A Post-Apocalyptic Action Film About Surviving in the Wasteland

Mad Max: Fury Road is an upcoming post-apocalyptic action film about surviving in the Wasteland. Directed by George Miller, the film is the fourth in the Mad Max franchise. Previous iterations of the franchise starred Mel Gibson as the titular “Mad” Max Rockatansky, but the role has been recast with Tom Hardy for Mad Max: Fury Road.

Mad Max: Fury Road also stars Charlize Theron as Imperator Furiosa, Hugh Keays-Byrne as Immortan Joe, and Nicholas Hoult as Nux. The film is scheduled to release on May 15th, 2015.

Haunted by his turbulent past, Mad Max believes the best way to survive is to wander alone. Nevertheless, he becomes swept up with a group fleeing across the Wasteland in a War Rig driven by an elite Imperator, Furiosa. They are escaping a Citadel tyrannized by the Immortan Joe, from whom something irreplaceable has been taken. Enraged, the Warlord marshals all his gangs and pursues the rebels ruthlessly in the high-octane Road War that follows.
