Tom Hardy Talks About His Prospect Mad Max Return in Fury Road Sequel
Star Tom Hardy of Mad Max: Fury Road talks on the situation of the wasteland. George Miller's Fury Road, which debuted in 2015, sees Hardy adopt Mel Gibson's former character of Max. The movie was much-loved, and Miller has now returned to the series with his new prequel, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. But it was said in the years following Fury Road's premiere that a sequel known as Mad Max: The Wasteland was under development and would have Hardy returning in character.
Hardy offers a sad update on Mad Max: The Wasteland during a recent Forbes interview. The actor claims the sequel to Fury Road isn't under development. See Hardy's brief but direct remark regarding the Sequel below:
Why Another Mad Max Film Might Not Materialize
Although Miller did recently show interest in creating another prequel, this one to Fury Road, Mad Max: The Wasteland might be dead in the water. The director claims that this prequel would document Max's circumstances in the year before his 2015 film's events. Presumably, the chronology of the film would allow Hardy to do his part once more. Sadly, this initiative now also seems somewhat improbable.
Though the Mad Max Saga has not been a box office hit, its reviews have been typically quite good. With an estimated budget of $168 million, it has thus so far earned just over $160.3 million globally. Although Fury Road was praised and a big nominee for awards, its financial performance was somewhat meager. The two Movies taken together imply that, at least at a comparable cost, the Mad Max franchise lacks the broad public appeal required to support another edition.
Mad Max: The Wasteland: A Sequel Possibly Never Made
"I doubt that's happening."
The path of the Mad Max series is unknown. Though Mad Max: Fury Road was both a critical and financial triumph, its follow-up, Mad Max: The Wasteland, has been shelved. The success of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga—which is now in theaters—may determine the fate of the franchise. Furiosa's box office performance will probably decide the fate of further Mad Max films, including The Wasteland and the suggested prequel to Fury Road.
