CHRIS HEMSWORTH EYED FOR MALE LEAD IN MAD MAX: FURIOSA: EXCLUSIVE
Posted by Sean McLaughlin | Aug 24, 2020 | Exclusives, Movies, News
IN SEARCH FOR A “BREATHTAKINGLY HANDSOME” MALE LEAD
George Miller’s Mad Max: Furiosa could be heading into production very soon, as Warner Bros. is trying to lock down the male lead, a character known as Dementus:
[DEMENTUS] Lead Male (30 – 40) He is breathtakingly handsome. An angel’s face, scarred by a deep forehead wound stitched together with shiny chrome staples.
CHRIS HEMSWORTH FITS THE BILL
We have been told that Warner Bros. is very interested Chris Hemsworth for the role, but it’s not a done deal. Going from Tom Hardy to Chris Hemsworth is not a bad trade-off however. Based on the description, the Dementus character seems tailor made for the Mad Max universe.

Hemsworth is very versatile. I welcome his presence in a new “Mad Max” movie.

Mad Max is not the male lead in a Mad Max movie? Does not compute.

Still don’t understand the need for this. I’d much rather a Fury Road sequel with Hardy as Max in the lead.

Mad Max is not the male lead in a Mad Max movie? Does not compute. It's a spin-off/prequel centered upon a young Furiosa. It's a Mad Max Universe movie, not a Mad Max movie. And it should be set 15-20 years before the events of "Fury Road".
