Twenty-six years ago, director George Miller alienated audiences with a staggeringly expensive sequel so weird and frightening that the head of Universal Pictures was forced to resign in the wake of its disastrous reception.
Miller has taken distinctly different stylistic approaches to each of his five “Mad Max” pictures — it’s the only series I know of where the world ends between the first and second films — and “Furiosa” feels a bit like when the bare bones of “The Road Warrior” filled out into the more digressive worldbuilding of “Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.
Miller and co-writer Nick Lathouris came up with “Furiosa” during the nearly two decades it took to get “Fury Road” in front of cameras. What started as a character backstory sketch blossomed into a full-length screenplay, one they toyed with the idea of shooting before or concurrently with the 2015 picture. There was even some serious talk about doing it as an anime, which is funny when you consider how star Anya Taylor-Joy already kind of looks like an anime character come to life.
