Almost a decade after 2015’s Fury Road zoomed onto screens, fans return to George Miller‘s dystopian desert with Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, for which a new trailer has been released.

The film, which stars Anya Taylor-Joy as the titular Furiosa (played in Fury Road by Charlize Theron) and Chris Hemsworth, acts as a prequel to Fury Road. Miller is back in the director’s seat with a script he co-wrote with Nico Lathouris.

In Furiosa, “45 years after the collapse, a young Furiosa is taken from her family. She will devote the rest of her life to finding her way home. This is her odyssey.” The official logline provides further details: As the world fell, young Furiosa (Taylor-Joy) is snatched from the Green Place of Many Mothers and falls into the hands of a great Biker Horde led by the Warlord Dementus (Hemsworth). Sweeping through the Wasteland, they come across the Citadel presided over by The Immortan Joe.  While the two Tyrants war for dominance, Furiosa must survive many trials as she puts together the means to find her way home.

The film premieres on May 24th in the US, and May 26th everywhere else. Watch the new Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga trailer below:
