Feature by News Team | 11 Dec 2014

The trailer for next year’s Mad Max reboot starring Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron and Nicholas Hoult has been released online.

Fury Road stars Hardy (The Dark Knight Rises, Locke) stars as the titular Max, first portrayed by Mel Gibson in the 1979 original, the 1981 sequel, and 1985's Beyond Thunderdome. In the new film, produced and directed by the series’ creator George Miller, notorious loner Max joins a group – led by Theron’s character Furiosa – moving across the post-apocalyptic Wasteland with a pretty angry Warlord in hot pursuit. Watch the effects-packed trailer below.

The trailer for this Mad Max reboot caps a good few weeks for fans of classic Hollywood action – it comes hot on the heels of footage from new films in the Star Wars, Jurassic Park and Terminator series. Mad Max: Fury Road is out on 15 May 2015, and a Mad Max game for consoles and PC from the developers of the Just Cause series is also due out next year.
