The first-ever Mad Max movie to release was in 1979. Following which, there were sequels in 1981, and 1985.

Charlize Theron, who played the role of Imperator Furiosa in the fourth installment of Mad Max franchise was reportedly the first choice of the makers. In an old interview, it was revealed that initially, the makers were planning to give Theron a mud mask and a bizarre haircut, however, due to some reason the look was transformed into short hair.
