It’s almost time to return to the Wasteland in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. On X (formerly Twitter), Odeon released nearly six minutes of new footage from Furiosa, which previews a vengeful Anya Taylor-Joy in the titular role.

In the first section of the footage, “Her Odyssey Begins,” a young Furiosa (Alyla Browne) is traveling the Wasteland with her mother (Charlee Fraser). However, Furiosa is abducted by the leader of the Bike Horde, Dementus (Chris Hemsworth). Before dying at the hands of Dementus, Furiosa’s mother urges her daughter to find and protect their home, “The Green Place of Many Mothers.”

In the second part, “A Warrior Awakens,” Furiosa (Taylor-Joy) allies with Praetorian Jack (Tom Burke), who helps her navigate the Wasteland while teaching her skills to survive. In the final section, “Ride Into Vengeance,” Furiosa undertakes a revenge-filled quest against Dementus as she fights for her freedom and the right to return home.

Furiosa’s ensemble also features Lachy Hulme, Nathan Jones, Angus Sampson, John Howard, Josh Helman, Quaden Bayles, and Daniel Webber.

Furiosa: Why the Mad Max prequel is the most anticipated 2024 action movie

A woman hides in shadow in Furiosa.

The post-apocalyptic Mad Max franchise was put on ice just as the acclaimed Fury Road reboot was fleshing out its world, but Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is finally set to release this year. Director George Miller's prequel (Lorenzo's Oil, Happy Feet), expands on the backstory of Imperator Furiosa, a character originally played by Charlize Theron in the 2015 reboot.

Before crossing paths with Tom Hardy's Mad Max, Anya Taylor-Joy will play a younger Furiosa as she's kidnapped from her home in the Green Place and thrust into a war between two Tyrants. While it still seems like it will be some time before a sequel to Fury Road finally premieres, this prequel seems like an exciting reason to delve back into this sci-fi dystopia. Between the star power of Taylor-Joy and Miller returning to the director's chair, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga has all the potential to be 2024's most promising action movie and one of the most anticipated movies of 2024.

Anya Taylor-Joy brings the heat in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’s first trailer

Anya Taylor-Joy as Furiosa in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

It's not uncommon for directors to lose a step late in their careers. But George Miller seems to be a rare exception. Miller's first feature-length film was actually the first Mad Max in 1979, and he revitalized his career in 2015 with the widely acclaimed sequel, Mad Max: Fury Road. Now, Fury Road is finally getting its prequel spinoff, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. And if the first trailer is any indication, Miller's still got his signature touch at 78 years old.

25 years later, this enjoyably bad James Bond movie is still not enough

James Bond leans up against a car.

Barbara Broccoli, the longtime producer of the Bond franchise, recently revealed that the search for the next 007 is underway. Bond is one of those IPs that will never die, no matter how much time passes in between projects or how good or bad they might be. Indeed, the franchise is full of undeniably high peaks, like Goldfinger and Casino Royale, and embarrassingly low valleys, like Moonraker and Die Another Day. Most of Pierce Brosnan's tenure as 007 is somewhere in between, with his four-film stint as the spy with a license to kill offering an uneven blend of well-executed action and unadulterated and quite unintentional camp.

Of his four movies, the third, Michael Apted's The World Is Not Enough, is the hardest to pin down. On the one hand, it's absolutely awful, with a ridiculous story that embraces the worst aspects of the franchise and clumsy action sequences that have aged like milk. And yet, the film is so shamelessly entertaining and deliriously silly that it's hard not to fall under its spell. On its 25th anniversary, let's look back at the complicated legacy of The World Is Not Enough and discuss how this deliciously awful movie is still one of the most purely enjoyable James Bond outings.
