While this film is an action-apocalyptic movie, it uses this setting to deal with complex issues such as grief, searching for home, and escaping that which no longer serves you.

While the characters go through an expedition filled with fear and a struggle for resources, their psychological states are just as affected and essential.

Of course, these complex characters needed to be portrayed by talented performers. So naturally, Charlize Theron played Furiosa, and Tom Hardy portrayed Max himself. Other cast members included Zoë Kravitz, Nicholas Hoult, and Hugh Keays-Byrne.
