I don't know if Mad Max: Fury Road is a sequel, prequel or inbetweenquel, all I know is that fans of the original Mel Gibson lead trilogy have been waiting for original director George Miller to drop this production for a loooooong time. Most recent accounts have stated that the film is in fact a reboot as too much time has passed for a sequel. And if memory serves me right, at one point, both Mel Gibson and Tom Hardy were attached to the project - my theories back then stood as either Hardy being the son of the original Max or Gibson in being an aged Max, is chronicling his adventures as a young man played by of course Hardy. If the film is as good as the trailer suggests, then it looks like this reboot could be a welcome edition to a new set of dystopian, ruff riding, vehicular savagery. |
