Speaking with Page Six, Australian director George Miller commented on the exhausting working conditions of completing each Mad Max project, also definitively stating that he is done directing films in the franchise.
“I won’t make more Mad Max movies,” the director states. “Fury Road with Charlize Theron, Zoë Kravitz, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Riley Keough was forever getting completed. If you finish one in a year, it’s considered a leap of faith. Start, stop, start again. I’ve shot in Australia in a field of wild flowers and flat red earth when it rained heavily forever. We had to wait 18 months ,and every return to the US was 27 hours. Those Mad Maxes take forever. I won’t do those anymore.”
George Miller has reportedly written a script for the next Mad Max feature, so perhaps the adventure isn’t over for Max just yet.
