the mad max fury road set sounds like a mass hallucination. immortan joe putting motivational posters everywhere for the war boys and being the group dad? furiosa teaching nux how to knit and nux knitting everyone christmas presents? max making bro-clets for half the cast? those two stunt-doubles meeting and falling in love while beating the shit out of each other? did a bunch of old friends just get together, have a massive, mad-max themed live-action roleplay and film it? or

juuuuuuuust about.

“The director didn’t have to look far to cast the role of the Warlord. On the first “Mad Max,” he had cast Hugh Keays-Byrne as the gleefully psychotic Toecutter. At the time, the freewheeling actor had volunteered to help pull together a cast and, if Miller would just ship the bikes, he’d lead a three-day road rally from Sydney to the Melbourne set of “Mad Max.” Much to Miller’s amazement, by the time they arrived, Keays-Byrne had transformed a loose band of actors into an authentic biker gang.” (x)

Also, earlier this year Riley Keough married Ben Smith-Peterson, having met him on set where he was stuntman for (I think?) the Doof Warrior.
