Mad Max 4: Fury Road --Hugemongous Latest Charlize Theron Challenge filmed in Namibia
What is this Mad Max 4 All About? God and Lords in disguise
Mad Max 4 is the fourth installment of the Mad Max franchise. From the very first script these futuristic series took place in the "Mad Max Universe." Miller used perfectly those deserting 'Queenslandic' roads and added some post-apocalyptic wasteland, with some influences from 'Alien,' and George Lucas' cinematic mind.
George Miller (67), the brain behind this revamped sequel, is an Australian film director, screenwriter, producer, and former medical doctor. He created Babe (1995) and Happy feet(2009, 2012). He will be directing the fourth Mad Max film, Mad Max 4: Fury Road. As tipped by friend Maria Jordan, CharlizeTheron will be Tom Hardy's costar. Actually she headed to Namibia these days.
Theron's character "Furiosa," will be missing the lower half of her left arm; her stunt double will be Annabelle Williams, who is actually missing that lower arm. The plot will be set shortly after the events of Beyond Thunderdome (Mad MAX 3), meaning children that were among the ruins of a destroyed Sydney, will return but at a later time. Savannah, the leader of the children, will be reciting that nightly "tell" of their journey and the man who saved them. From here we just make our mind fly into creativity and unstoppable plotting.
The Cast
Tom Hardy
With his breakthrough performance as Eames in Christopher Nolan's science fiction thriller Inception, English actor Tom Hardy has been brought to the attention of mainstream audiences worldwide. He will be playing the leading role in the 4th release as Max Rockatansky, who was first played by Mel Gibson in 1979. His last entry was at "The Dark Knight Rises."
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

Jeremy Renner didn't cut it...for Director George Miller.
After The Hurt Locker Jeremy Renner campaigned for the role of Mad Max. But George Miller the Director, chose Tom Brady. Eventually, Renner moved on with roles in Mission Impossible 4, Ghost Protocol (2011) and the BlockBuster, "The Avengers."
Switching locations
Funny to know how climate changed everything for Pre-production. The movie was to be filmed in Broken Hill, New South Wales (Australia), the original location for Mad Max. Unfortunately rainfall had completely changed the desert landscape and years later the decision was made to move the production to Namibia. By 2006 it was not politically correct to work in Namibia, and the Project went into hiatus.' Happy Feet' took the Box Office by storm in 2006.
Our consensual Virtual Interview With Charlize
We had the opportunity to sit down with Theron in this informal Cyber interview in our NJ home. We gathered all the elements facilitated by High-Partition Technology, and put together this Quasi-Interview.
So... Charlize, finally you are with us in this quasi-unique Interview. According to our sources, Martie Coetser and Maria Jordan, You already started filming Mad Max:Fury Road, 5 days ago.
Yes Joseph. Or, should I call you Lord?
I don't know dear. Don't make it 'hard' on me. Just stunned by that new beauty bestowed in you, makes me wanna kill that hairdresser of yours. (She just shaved her head for the role)
Let me call you Lord, no hard feelings. Well, It’s been six years since this woman didn't wear those tight leather designs from Aeon Flux. It was time to skin this cat already. I’m very excited about it. I think that... just like Prometheus, it will be an interesting world.
You were four years old when Mad Max came out. What are your expectations for this monumental Mad max 4?
“ Well Lord, I feel like the original Mad Max created such a vivid world, that to go back and re-imagine it... and kind of replay in that sandbox sounds like fun to me.
Is the script that you were given all that time ago exactly what you’re still doing?
“Yes, exactly the same script. I know. It was more logistics. It was the fact that he had to finish ‘Happy Feet.’ Then there were terrible floods in Australia and so... and so...
What is George Miller asking of you? Is it something you’ve never done?
No, it’s really a challenging piece of material don't get me wrong. It’s not the original ‘Mad Max.’ It’s the revamped ‘Mad Max.’ It’s Tom Hardy, who’s incredible for the role. So, the whole thing is just exciting to say the least.
Are you as excited to be back making huge movies?
I think studios have learned that you can merge good movies with the ones that make it big. A good narrative and a big blockbuster is a good movie, so why separate the two? So, those are the kind of movies that I’m looking for. I don’t want to separate like my good work from my big studio movies anymore. I just want to be a part of some good storytelling.”
Is this one of those films where it’s going to be PG-13, or are you guys pushing for a hard R? Do you know? I know there’s some violence between predators and underground wheeling.
Yeah, yeah, there’s some bad-ass violence in it. I mean, if we do what the script says, I don’t know how you can do, but then I feel like PG-13 is pushing a little bit, too, which is good. It feels like... don’t know. I remember being like, young and watching ‘Alien’ and loving it. I can’t say much. I mean, ultimately it’s going to be up to George Miller, but it feels like...
Thank you Charlize. Huh, say, can we go on a more personal note, you know? For Instance George Miler can leave us alone, and we can have a cup of coffee and some Doughnuts?
I watch my diet Lord... But yeah, you can ask more questions if you want...
On My Dinning Room, Candlelights And Some Wine...sorry Guys!
What do you appreciate from life and therefore people Charlize?
I like being around people who like to live life and understand the value of it.
That means us..? I mean, what makes you tick, or get you closer to a person... or a guy?
Sometimes I can be shy and I shoudn't reveal this to you. But I don’t live my life in a way that feels big. When you’re in my life, it’s actually very contained
How do you stay in shape? Katy Perry loves her pizza. J-Lo got her 25 years old toy boy. You get the message?
I’m sure there are women who never have to worry about what they eat. But I do. I exercise a lot, and I hike a lot. Little baby Jackson has change my life though.
We don't want to ask about your loss in the past, but what are you be grateful for?
I'm really lucky for this life that God gave me. My life is pretty kick-ass and I'm very grateful for that.
How was acting next to the newcomers, like Kristen Stewart. Does she eat or what?
I would jump off a building for that girl. She's amazing and has a tremendous amount of talent. She loves her shape, and Robert Pattinson too. Did you get it? She is going to kill me...Ha-ha-ha.
Anyone who is your back bone or support?
Of course, my mom. I read your hub about my life. I'm your secret admirer. Love that poetry of yours Lord have mercy. Aside from smiles, I wanna send a huge thank you to the stunt-women who do so much behind the scenes to help my characters come to life!
I have noticed that look of yours in the wicked witch, Aeon Flux and Prometheus. How did you learn, or how do you keep that sexy look?
You know better Lord. It's a matter of attitude, sensuality, grace, elegance and confidence. Need I say more? Or you want me to put it into practice?
Charlize please? HubPages could ban me at any time if we write every 'steamy' sensation down to the T. But how were your memories from school?
I wasn't part of the popular crowd. I went to an art school, where I was obsessed with ballet and I wore those thick nerdy glasses. Boys don't like big, nerdy glasses, so I didn't really have boyfriends.
I have sensed vulnerability in your words and I know, huh, you are highly appreciative for what you have...
Wow, you really can read minds Lord! But seriously, life isn't a dress rehearsal, you have to live it the way you want to. At this moment I'm at peace with what I have. I got into this business because of the grace of people handing me great opportunities and, as every actor will tell you, you're only as good as people believe you to be
So the clock is ticking... you know? and we are not getting younger, right?
I've always been very honest in saying I wanted a family. Not going into details, but little Jackson was my answer. Madonna did it, Angelina broke the record and Sandra B was not ashamed. All of them were very supportive. Besides I love kids, and I love my country South Africa.
We take inspiration from every day life and personal experiences... and of course our own pain and solitary moments. How do you manage your own creativity?
Personally, I don't think you can create anything interesting from a comfort zone. You have to work from a place of fear and failure. Like you said, vulnerability...
Tell us about your foundation : "Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project"
I founded the organization in 2007. I love what we’re doing and I believe in it. Growing up in South Africa, I understood the immediate need, and also felt the neglect of people who have no tools to understand how to prevent becoming HIV-positive.
We work to listen to kids and their communities in Africa and provide the kind of support they need to make their own lives better, healthier, and safer.
Thanks Charlize for your honesty, and thanks to your mom Mrs. Gerda. Would you accept a real interview for Mad max 5 and 6, that we heard, will be filmed back to back with this one..?
If you keep it lighthearted and fun, why not?
