The teasing for Mad Max: Fury Road is being answered by new trailers and the new trailers are being over-shadowed by Tom Hardy talking about the film itself.
Mad Max: Fury Road is technically the fourth film in the franchise, but also the first of a reboot. Hardy has revealed to Esquire that he has signed up for three Mad Max films, but it all depends on how the first film goes:
“Everything’s based on figures and how things are perceived. Inevitably it’s a business.”
An oddly honest portrayal of the film business.
When it comes to the film itself Hardy says the movie is “f*cking unbelievable” While we can expect a good amount of CGI in the film, there were lots of accidents during and “Luckily nobody died.” The production process of the film was pretty insane too, Hard described it as Cirque du Soleil metting Slipknot:
“We were in the middle of nowhere,” says Hardy, “so far away from the studio system that [Warner Bros] can’t really see what’s going on, and just getting things to and from the set was a nightmare. We’d lose half a vehicle in sand and have to dig it out. It was just this unit in the middle of x-million square-kilometres of desert, and then this group of lunatics in leathers, like a really weird S&M party, or a Hell’s Angels convention. It was like Cirque du Soleil meets f*cking Slipknot.”
The whole production process of the movie sounds insane (hopefully the movie is just as awesome), but do we really need three more Mad Max films?
