Being a prequel dedicated to Furious much younger, this time Charlize Theron will not return to play her, but Anya Taylor-Joy, Queen of Chess from Netflix. That’s because George Miller doesn’t consider the de-aging technology credible at this point (though it works for Scorsese). This jump back in time will also see Immortan Joe’s warlord translator changed from Case-Byrne, who also passed away in 2020, to Chris Hemsworth, who would be perfect to play the new Furiosa’s father.
Little is known about the rest of the project. One can only imagine that we will see what the mythical “Green Place of Many Mothers” looked like before it was destroyed.
Charlize Theron is very sorry. He understands the creative need, but does not hide the fact that he is “heartbroken.”
After this, in an interview given The newspaper “New York Times Miller confirmed that the South African actress will not be returning to the role of Furiosa in the sequel. Fury RoadCharlize Theron shared her “heartbreaking pain” over the remake while speaking with The HollywoodReporters.
“It’s hard to swallow,” she said. – This is very painful. I love this character and am so grateful that I played a small role in his creation. It will always be a role I will think about and think about fondly.” Who knows if he keeps Furiosa’s mechanical prosthetic arm somewhere in his attic. Maybe with a place of honor on the mantelpiece.
Miller initially considered returning to work with Charlize Theron for Furious using rejuvenation technology that took decades from Robert De Niro and Al Pacino Irishman Martin Scorsese, but felt that he was not yet capable of supporting the entire film frame by frame. “For a long time, I thought we could use CG on Charlize, but the technology for facial rejuvenation has not yet reached the stage of development (that allows it to work with all possible needs),” Miller told reporters. The newspaper “New York Times“despite the valiant attempts made in Irishman, I believe there is still a lot to be done. Everyone is on the verge of solving its critical problems, especially Japanese video game designers, but I think it’s still immature.”HollywoodReportersTheron confirmed that she was not angry with Miller or Anya Taylor-Joy (whom she defined as “one of the coolest actresses of our time, she could do anything I could ever imagine”).
