Anya Taylor-Joy is all set to appear in the upcoming prequel to Mad Max: Fury Road. The actress will be seen portraying the role of the lead protagonist in the film. While working on the film, Taylor Joy had a life-changing experience.
The actress claimed that working alongside a talented star cast gave her a chance to nurture herself. However, not everyone working on the film had the same notion, as there were actors who found it hard to work on the film.
Anya Taylor Joy had a life-changing experience while filming Furiosa
George Miller’s 2015 action thriller film Mad Max: Fury Road created a blast at the box office and was critically acclaimed as well. The series will soon mark its return with a bang as a prequel is on its way to hit theaters. The fans will get to witness Anya Taylor-Joy in the lead role on Imperator Furiosa.
The actress claimed that working on the film gave her some major lessons that she called life-changing. During an interview with a news outlet, the actress admitted that adapting to her role changed her life to the extent that it might take a while to get out of that zone. Taylor-Joy said,
“It will take me the two full years before the movie comes out to even begin to process to digest what I just left 12 days ago.”
The actress also shed some light on working with the star cast of Furiosa. She explained that working with her fellow actors helped her grow as an artist. She said,
“[Furiosa] was the most life-changing experience I’ve ever had, with such talented artists. I really felt like I grew up so much, but yes, it’s wild. It’s utterly unique.”
Working in Furiosa is indeed life-changing for Taylor Joy, as the actress herself has claimed that portraying the role made her feel stronger than she could have ever been.
What’s in store for the upcoming prequel to Mad Max?
Mad Max: Fury Road, which was released previously in 2015, also had a strong star cast, which made the film a massive hit. However, not everyone in the film had an amazing experience like Anya Taylor-Joy.
Earlier, while filming the sequel Mad Max: Fury Road, the lead actors Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron had some internal conflicts; however, the actors were smart enough to not reflect that in their work. Although such isn’t the case this time, Taylor Joy has claimed that throughout the shoot, the cast members got along quite well.
The upcoming film, Furiosa, consists of a star-studded cast that includes Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth in lead roles.
Furiosa is scheduled to release on May 24, 2024.
