The release of “Furiosa,” the new chapter in George Miller’s “Mad Max” saga, is approaching, with a premiere scheduled for May 24 in theaters.
The film tells the origins of a warrior played by Anya Taylor-Joyce. But as we know – and hope – Miller, in addition to inventing a distant future, has always managed to fuel our fantasy as car fans with absurd vehicles launched at breakneck speeds through the dunes of an unforgiving desert. And this time, too, expectations are starting to rise according to the forecast. At least according to what Chris Hemsworth, one of the main actors in “Furiosa,” posted on social media.
“Thor” shared a photo from the set, and while many noticed the long unkempt beard and disheveled appearance of his character, the villain Dementus. Not so much for the form, but for the central engine, which evokes the bygone era of chopper models and threatens chaos and destruction in its wake.
The process of creating such a vehicle must have certainly been a difficult task for the Miller vehicle builders. But imagine for a moment, in that lonely desert, having to build such a metallic monster. From the protection of the radial cylinders to the transmission scheme, every detail of this chopper seems to have been carefully and attentively constructed, at least from this photograph. We also know that George Miller doesn’t play around with vehicles and that all the vehicles seen in the cult hit “Mad Max: Fury Road” were functional, so we expect the same from this “radial chopper”, which we hope – but are sure – will not only have an aesthetic role. At this point, however, we can’t help but wonder how a motor like this sounds and we would also like to know which skilled hand created this monster.
