Mad Max: Fury Road not only revitalized the Mad Max franchise on the big screen after a thirty year absence (since Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome released in 1985); director George Miller?s big-budget return to his own B-movie post apocalyptic action franchise has also become one of the most critically acclaimed films released thus far in 2015. The filmmaker previously revealed that he?s already completed script work for additional Mad Max movies, as a result of the extended pre-production for Fury Road, current Max Rockatansky actor Tom Hardy (who took over the role from Mel Gibson in Fury Road) is likewise contracted for additional Mad Max films. It now appears the question may be when, not if, Miller will direct another Mad Max film, and which story will he tell, once Warner Bros grants the green-light.
