Mad Max: Fury Road

Director: George Miller

Starring: Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron, Nicholas Hoult

Released: May 14

George Miller has been gestating this for nigh-on 30 years, including development hiccups and reshoots. The film takes place between Mad Max and The Road Warrior; laconic ex-highway patrol cop Max Rockatansky (Tom Hardy) joins mysterious desert warrior Furiosa (Charlize Theron).

Notably, it uses minimal CGI – they actually drove through deserts, put real people’s bodies at risk in stunts, and crashed heaps of cars. It also seems to preserve a certain nutty Australiana, with characters named Rictus Erectus, Organic Mechanic, Toast and The Dag. Wooooo! I can’t wait!
