In the Fury Road prequel Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, the star was ready to go all the way for the signature Furiosa look.

Director George Miller and actors Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth during a media call for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

Taylor-Joy was surprised when Australian film-maker George Miller – who helmed the Mad Max film franchise – rejected her request to mimic the famous hairdo.“I had such a hard time wrapping my head around the question of why Furiosa had hair for such a long time,” says the star of black comedy film The Menu and drama series The Queen’s Gambit in a Zoom interview with The Straits Times.

As is typical of 79-year-old Miller – who created the Mad Max character in the Mel Gibson film of the same name in 1979, and who has had a hand in directing and writing all five films set in the universe – the film’s lore is drawn from history.
