Overview
- George Miller is actively pitching a package that would include one last Mad Max theatrical film followed by a companion television series, with the intention of selling the franchise afterward.
- Multiple outlets report Warner Bros. declined to finance the projects, leaving Miller to meet other studios for financing and distribution.
- Amazon, Universal and Sony have been named as potential suitors, but no studio has signed a deal and the effort is described as early-stage.
- The studios’ caution is tied to Furiosa’s weak box-office performance, which grossed roughly $174–175 million worldwide against a reported ~$168 million budget and failed to deliver clear profits.
- Key creative and casting details remain unresolved—Tom Hardy’s return is uncertain—and Miller reportedly has existing material such as The Wasteland that could form the basis of the new projects.
