Any decades-long franchise inevitably gets to the point where the timeline and watch order begins to confuse. With the release of “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga,” director George Miller is finally adding his first non-sequential film to the series.
The films are gasoline-soaked, rubber-burning, post-apocalypse movies following the titular Max, first played by Mel Gibson and later Tom Hardy, through a vehicle and bullet obsessed wasteland. The latest film – “Furiosa” – serves as a prequel to 2015’s “Mad Max: Fury Road” and expands on the character made famous by Charlize Theron.
