Will There Be a Furiosa 2 Release Date & Is It Coming Out?

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is a prequel exploring Furiosa’s backstory, portrayed by Anya Taylor-Joy. The film follows her abduction from the Green Place of Many Mothers by the warlord Dementus, and her fight for survival in a harsh wasteland. The movie premiered on May 24, 2024, and now, viewers are eager for a sequel. If you want to know whether there will be a Furiosa 2, this is what we have learned​.

Here’s all the Furiosa 2 release date information we know so far, and all the details on when it is coming out.

Is there a Furiosa 2 release date?

There is no Furiosa 2 release date, as the movie has wrapped up its storyline.

The chances for a Furiosa sequel are extremely low, as the movie directly concludes into the Mad Max: Fury Road narrative. That said, George Miller’s enthusiasm for expanding the Mad Max universe suggests that at least one more spin-off or prequel of the movie franchise could indeed be in the pipeline.

The filmmaker has openly discussed having two additional stories to explore, particularly concerning Max’s backstory, which he developed alongside the narrative of Furiosa. Fans have been specifically awaiting the news of Mad Max: The Wasteland, which is set a year before Mad Max: Fury Road.

While Miller had announced the project in 2015, there has been no further developments on that front, especially after the director’s legal struggles with Warner Bros. Pictures in 2019. However, Miller recently gave an update on Mad Max: The Wasteland. In an episode of the Happy. Sad. Confused. podcast, he told Josh Horowitz that the movie franchise’s future depends on the performance of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

“I’m still figuring out what to do with [‘The Wasteland’]. I’m just waiting to see the reception on ‘Furiosa.’ If it all lines up, then we’ll go ahead with it,” shared Miller. This intention indicates a strong likelihood for future installments in the film series, given his historical commitment to the series.

Moreover, Warner Bros. Pictures’ continued collaboration with Miller, despite previous legal and production challenges, supports the potential for future releases. Thus, while there might not be more to Furiosa’s backstory in the Mad Max series, the character might just appear in other films, if Miller decides to continue the franchise.

Anya Taylor-Joy leads as Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, supported by Alyla Browne, who plays her younger self with AI-enhanced facial blending. The cast also includes Chris Hemsworth as warlord Dementus, Tom Burke as Praetorian Jack, and Lachy Hulme in a dual role as Immortan Joe and Rizzdale Pell.

Why Furiosa 2 might not be happening anytime soon

Furiosa 2 likely isn’t coming out. This is because as mentioned above, the film has concluded Furiosa’s past character arc and merged into the current Mad Max timeline.

On the other hand, the intricate narrative groundwork laid in previous Mad Max films indicates that any sequel, including Mad Max: The Wasteland, would necessitate significant preparation and planning. ComingSoon will provide an update if and when the project is officially in production.

The official synopsis for Furiosa reads:

“As the world fell, young Furiosa is snatched from the Green Place of Many Mothers and falls into the hands of a great Biker Horde led by the Warlord Dementus. Sweeping through the Wasteland they come across the Citadel presided over by The Immortan Joe. While the two Tyrants war for dominance, Furiosa must survive many trials as she puts together the means to find her way home.”
