Hardy Joins Mad Max Cast
1 min readIt’s official, Tom Hardy (Shinzon in Star Trek: Nemesis) has been cast as Mad Max.
As reported recently at TrekToday, Hardy was in the running to replace Mel Gibson as Mad Max in Mad Max 4: Fury Word.
In addition to Hardy, Charlize Theron (Monster) will also be in the post-apocalyptic film.
Filming for Max Max 4 will begin next August, in Australia. There are no details on the plot yet, but it is known that there will be plenty of stunt work, with “super fast vehicles” that are under development. “It’s obviously over-the-top,” said Director George Miller. “But they’ll [the vehicles] have to be very high performance because the film is shot in speed, and they’ll have to be very, very safe. The reason this movie is so big is that there’s just a huge number of stunts. We’re trying to do stuff that I believe people haven’t done before.”
