[MAD MAX: FURY ROAD] FACES DELAYS UNTIL 2012



Filming on Mad Max: Fury Road has already been subject to delays. The six-month $100 million shoot was meant to kick off August 2010 with stars Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron in New South Wales, before the start date was revised to February of next year. The production has been pushed back again, this time a full year to February 2012. Even worse, The Australian reports that “the high Australian dollar could ultimately kill the film as its budget grows.” 






The first delay was for meteorological reasons, but the report doesn’t specify the nature of this postponement.  Is an ever-bloating budget to blame? It was recently revealed that Theron’s character would be missing an arm by Anabelle Williams, an Olympic swimmer whose left arm ends at the elbow and will play Theron’s stunt double. Here’s how Hardy described the film in an interview with Collider.


“It’s a relaunch and revisit to the world. An entire restructuring.  That’s not to say that it’s not picking up or leaving off from the Mad Max you know already, but it’s a nice re-take on the entire world using the same character, depositing him in the same world but bringing him up to date by 30 years.”

Hopefully Miller can find a way to get it in front of cameras by February 2012, Australian dollar be damned.
