Mad Max: Fury Road, a 2015 blockbuster, and its prequel Furiosa required cast, crew, and stunt team to work in isolation in Namibia for months. Despite the extreme conditions, actor Anya Taylor-Joy revealed that she felt isolated and alone during the filming of Furiosa. She described the strict vision of director George Miller, who wanted her to convey emotions only through her eyes and not her mouth.

Miller reportedly told Taylor-Joy to keep her mouth closed, with no expression or emotion, saying that her mouth looked too young when it was open. Taylor-Joy shared instances where Miller would demand takes with specific lip movements, emphasizing his concern about her youthful appearance. Her comments were met with a sense of unease and concern… with some describing her stories as “deeply unsettling”. It is also worth noting that the filming of Fury Road was marred by tension between co-stars Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy.

The two actors had different working styles, “with Hardy often being late to set and Theron being punctual as an ex-dancer.” This tension was reported when the film first came out and was a subject of discussion. Dates of events related to this: * 2015: Release of Mad Max: Fury Road

Anya Taylor-Joy on How ‘Safe’ the Stunts of ‘Furiosa’ Were

An early question focused on Miller’s use of practical-versus-digital effects as well as the fact that this has been a “big year of people talking about stunties, giving credit to those who help make you so heroic onscreen.” After Miller spoke briefly about the ever-evolving technology of onscreen effects — in the nine years since Fury Road, he explained, the tools available to him have already changed dramatically — Taylor-Joy, sporting an interesting chapeau, spoke lovingly of her stunt double and the stunt department in general.

“My stunt double, Hayley Wright, is my sister,” she added. “She has been with me consistently. We met on this movie and she’s now one of my best friends in the entire world. Everything that she did, I did, too. And the most important thing is that, rather than it being an environment of aggression in any way — of ‘You have to do this’ — it was, ‘I love you, I believe in you, you can do this. And I’m going to help you do this in the best possible way that you can.’ God, I love these stuntpeople. They’re so wonderful. And you know what? Best people on set, easy. Always.”
