First Official Poster For Mad Max: Fury Road Revealed

The intensely wild clip has blown away most critics and audiences as it rushes through some striking visual wizardry and larger than life panorama of the pristine desert. It begins with Mad Max, played by Tom Hardy, introducing himself stating his name and that his world is "fire and blood." Max is dragged away by a tyrannous gang that brutalizes and enslaves him. The trailer picks pace as the war begins and Charlize Theron's character is seen scanning the desert and joining the battle with her crew.

The first look at Mad Max: Fury Road, which stars Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron, was revealed via Entertainment Weekly's July cover, the dark and gritty semblance of a ravaged place is effectively captured. The story gave away some more information about the sequel to the original (1980).

Both the original and the new adaptation have been directed by George Miller. Miller also stated that the movie will feature very little CGI with 80% of the reel capturing naturally executed stunts. But also stated that he was working on creating, "not just a physical experience, but an intense emotional one."

In the cover story interview with Entertainment Weekly Hardy added that the seven month shoot in the hot desert, which was completely dead and parched, was both taxing and rewarding.

"It was mental in a brilliant way," Hardy said. "You have no concrete, no coffee shops. We were in the middle of a sandpit."

The story in EW also reveals that the shoot was exceptionally gruelling given the desert heat, dust and gritty atmosphere. Doing action sequences in these circumstances only made it tougher. "Nothing about this movie was a walk in the park," Theron told the publication. "Vanity went out the window." 

Miller also spoke to IndieWire recently about avoiding reliance on a script and dialogue: "To not have to rely on dialogue...I knew right off the bat that this was going to be like a huge ballet."
