George Miller’s #MadMaxFuryRoad prequel #Furiosa starring Anya Taylor-Joy, Chris Hemsworth, and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II has been delayed. bit.ly/3nu0rou

The hugely ambitious action prequel was originally scheduled to open on June 23, 2023. Instead, it will hit screens on Memorial Day of 2024. bit.ly/3nu0rou

In addition, #SalemsLot, the studio’s upcoming adaptation of Stephen King’s best-selling novel will open on Sept. 9, 2022. bit.ly/3nu0rou

Taylor-Joy will take on the role of Imperator Furiosa, the role played memorably by Charlize Theron in “Fury Road.” That film was a famously troubled & complex shoot, resulting in numerous release date delays as Miller labored to get his vision on screen. bit.ly/3nu0rou

It ultimately paid off. The film was adored by critics and scored several Oscar nominations. Its reputation has only grown in subsequent years with many cinephiles considering it to be one of the greatest action flicks in history. bit.ly/3nu0rou

While you wait to see #Furiosa on the big screen, you can still ride shiny and chrome in the original cars from #MadMaxFuryRoad.

So far, no studios have announced release dates in May of 2024, so it’s unclear if Furiosa will face a foe even more formidable than Immortan Joe. bit.ly/3nu0rou

And by the time the movies hit theaters, WarnerMedia will be no more. The company is being spun off by AT&T and will merge with Discovery. The new entity has been dubbed Warner Bros. Discovery. bit.ly/3nu0rou
