Charlize Theron has dubbed ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’ a “beautiful film” and praised Anya Taylor-Joy.
The 48-year-old actress played Imperator Furiosa in 2015’s ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ and she and the 28-year-old actress, who played a younger version of her character in the latest movie in George Miller‘s money-spinning post-apocalyptic franchise, released earlier this year, are eager to meet up to “connect” over the role.
She told The Hollywood Reporter of the fifth instalment in the series: “It’s amazing, it’s a beautiful film.”
Asked if she’s discussed it with Anya yet, she replied: “No, we’ve really been trying to connect.

The 79-year-old filmmaker told the outlet: “Way back, my intention was, if we were to do the other film, was to do it with Charlize. But almost 10 years has gone by and then I thought, ‘Oh, we’ll try the de-ageing.’
“And then I saw de-ageing in the hands of really great filmmakers like Martin Scorsese in the ‘Irishman’ and Ang Lee in ‘Gemini Man.’ And what you tend to do is only see the technology — you’re not really watching performance. So there’s a risk of distracting.”
