Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth star in Academy Award-winner George Miller’s “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga,” the much-anticipated return to the iconic imaginary world he created more than 40 years ago with the “Mad Max” films. Miller is now ready with an all-new original and standalone action adventure that will reveal the origins of the powerhouse character from the multiple Oscar-winning global smash “Mad Max: Fury Road.” The film from Warner Bros. Pictures is produced by Miller and his longtime partner, Oscar-nominated producer Doug Mitchell under their Australian-based Kennedy Miller Mitchell banner.

Chris Hemsworth: Villainous Journey

Ask Hemsworth about his experience playing Dementus and he says, "I’ve played villains in smaller spaces—not any that have been as impactful as Dementus on the overarching arc of the film. It was a real joy. To be able to track a villain from beginning to end—the history, his backstory, the amount of detail allowed in this film—is unlike anything I’ve done before. And I don’t know if I was actively seeking to play a character like this, but you’re always on the lookout for something that will get the fire going. Certainly the first time I read it, it ignited something in me that I hadn’t felt for a long, long time… something from the moment I read it to the moment we finished shooting that has been spinning around my brain, and I’m sure it will continue to do so for a few more years. Good and bad."
