The production on the Mad Max: Fury Road prequel, Furiosa, is finally underway. Now fans can see their first look at actor Chris Hemsworth on set for his new role in Furiosa – and the actor looks completely insane. It’s a completely different style than any of his previous roles, and one that makes the actor unrecognizable.
As you can see below, he’s sporting a long beard with matching hair – both of which are colored red. In fact, he even has an upturned moustache which makes him especially dandy-looking. It’s certainly going to be a wild look for the apocalypse.
Unfortunately, his actual costume in the upcoming prequel has been covered up by his rain jacket. As such, we’ll have to wait for further glimpses to know what that might look like. But it’s certainly an exciting look at what’s to come – so hopefully there’s more soon.
Here are the Furiosa set photos featuring Chris Hemsworth:

It’s unclear exactly which role that Chris Hemsworth will be playing in the new film. While the two villains of the movie will be someone named Dementus and a younger version of Immortan Joe, it’s unconfirmed if Hemsworth will be playing Dementus or not. It’s possible that he could be someone else entirely – so hopefully we’ll have an additional confirmation on that soon. As for the younger Immortan Joe, it’s unclear who that will be, as the actor who portrayed him for Fury Road – Hugh Keays-Byrne – has sadly passed away.
George Miller will once again be in the director’s chair, filming a screenplay he co-wrote with Nick Lathouris. George Miller will produce alongside Doug Mitchell.
The cast for the film includes Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth. Tom Burke, Nathan Jones, and Angus Sampson also star.
The upcoming Mad Max: Fury Road spin-off, Furiosa, will be released in theaters on May 24, 2024. Fans can stay tuned to ScreenGeek for more updates on the developing project as we have them.
