#MAD MAX MOVIES MOVIE#
Since his Mad Max success in 2015, Tom Hardy has gone from strength to strength as a blockbuster leading man. Add in the fact that Hardy is among the top three better’s choices for the role of James Bond and fans of Mad Max have a perfect storm delaying the next movie in the series.
#MAD MAX MOVIES UPDATE#
The lack of any update regarding the Mad Max 5 release date is bound to only cause more fan theories and speculation about the plot.
As such, it stands to reason that The Wasteland will fill in this blank by explaining the circumstances that ended Max’s world between the first and second movies, putting an end to the ever-shifting Mad Max apocalypse backstory.
#MAD MAX MOVIES SERIES#
The series has been infamously vague about the cause of its offscreen apocalypse, which various movies crediting the end of the world to nuclear war, fuel shortages, or a combination of the two. The odds are good that the sequel will follow Max across the titular post-apocalyptic setting and, judging by the name, may finally explain how the Mad Max franchise’s world ended in-universe. Indeed, unlike the Mad Max prequel Furiosa, which is already slated for release in 2024, there are zero developments regarding the Mad Max 5 release date. As of right now, a title is all that viewers have to go on, with Miller announcing that the next sequel will be called “The Wasteland.” Original creator and director George Miller has ambitious plans for the fifth movie’s story which he outlined during the production of Fury Road, although even the most eager Mad Max franchise fans will have trouble unearthing any details about these plans. While Furiosa’s canon backstory may arrive on-screen (comparatively) soon, Mad Max: The Wasteland won’t be hitting cinemas for quite some time due to the issues outlined above, and may end up leaving the franchise fallow for as long as ten years (or more, depending on the schedules of its star and director).ĭespite what fans of the Mad Max series may have assumed, the fifth installment has been announced and its star Tom Hardy said he signed on for more than one movie before the release and subsequent success of Fury Road. It involves an ongoing lawsuit, the upcoming Furiosa spinoff movie, and series star Tom Hardy’s prior commitments. It’s been almost seven long years since Fury Road reignited the franchise, so why is Mad Max: The Wasteland taking its time reaching theaters? The answer to why the Mad Max 5 release date hasn't been finalized is complicated.

This is unfortunate because George Miller's 2015 reboot/sequel to his acclaimed genre-defining films from the '80s created a new generation of Mad Max fans unable to wait for the next one's release.
