Anya Taylor-Joy Only Has 30 Lines of Dialogue in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga

The 2015 hit Mad Max movie set a high bar for success, and the pressure was on for George Miller’s follow-up to be nothing short of spectacular. Packed to the brim with action, it’s been disclosed in a recent interview with The Telegraph that Taylor-Joy’s character has just 30 lines of dialogue, despite being the lead.

This goes to show just how much of the film’s focus was on adrenaline-pumping sequences over dialogues, a unique experience for the actor indeed. In a conversation with The New York Times, the actress revealed her on-set experience. She said,

 “I’ve never been more alone than making that movie. I don’t want to go too deep into it, but everything that I thought was going to be easy was hard.I do want to 100 percent preface this by saying I love George and if you’re going to do something like this, you want to be in the hands of someone like George Miller.

But he had a very, very strict idea of what Furiosa’s war face looked like, and that only allowed me my eyes for a large portion of the movie. It was very much ‘mouth closed, no emotion, speak with your eyes.’ That’s it, that’s all you have.”

She further explained,

“I am a really strong advocate of female rage. We’re animals, and there’s a point where somebody just snaps, There’s one scream in that movie, and I am not joking when I tell you that I fought for that scream for three months.”

Furiosa is an absolutely magnificent character. The 2015 movie truly captured audiences’ hearts with Charlize Theron’s portrayal, showcasing women in action like never before and breaking new ground. The character set a few records in that regard. As a result, there’s undoubtedly an eagerness among people to dig deeper into her story. Now that the opportunity is here, anticipation is at an all-time high.
