Farlane insisted. The idea of a ship, in the naval sense, cruising in space did not originate with that show, he said. He insisted he drew from many different placesI miss theaspirational place Star Trek used to occupy, Mac. Farlane said. Theyve chosen to go in a different direction, he said, describing that direction as dystopian. The aspirational space of early Star Trek, Mac. Farlane maintained, now is unoccupied.

Fox not worried about being sued by CBSEarlier in the day, critics were even more pointed about the relationship between the two shows. During an executive session with the top brass, they were asked if Fox was worried that CBS might sue. Fox Television Group chairman and CEO Dana Walden said they were aware of the connections to Trek but felt safe, legally via EW Were not really concerned. We obviously have a big legal team. We vet things, so its not like were just flying by the seat of our pants out here. Seths intention is to do something that clearly pays homage to Star Trek, that clearly was inspired a lot by Star Trek. He talks about The Twilight Zone, a show that examines the human condition in the future and looks at the human condition through little morality plays, but I cant imagine, especially when you see the direction that the Star Trek franchise is moving, that anyone involved would consider it anything other than a compliment. Most shows have some DNA of previous shows. There are very few shows that Ive worked on that werent slight reinventions of something thats come before it. It is a certain format of storytelling, its a certain act structure, there are certain limitations to what we all do in this storytelling form, so I find it to be flattering and I know Seth holds the Star Trek franchise in the highest regard.

Australia is a desert wasteland and civilization has collapsed. Max Tom Hardy, a former MFP officer, is captured by the War Boys, the army of a tyrannical cult leader named Immortan Joe Hugh Keays Byrne. Designated as a universal blood donor, Max is imprisoned and used as a living blood bag for a sickly War Boy called Nux Nicholas Hoult. Meanwhile, Imperator Furiosa Charlize Theron drives her heavily armored War Rig to collect gasoline in nearby Gas Town. However, Furiosa begins driving off route, alerting Joe who realizes that his Five Wives Rosie Huntington Whiteley, Riley Keough, Zo Kravitz, Abbey Lee Kershaw, and Courtney Eaton beautiful and healthy women specially selected for breeding are gone. Joe leads his entire War Boy army in pursuit of Furiosa, calling on the aid of his allies in Gas Town and the Bullet farm. Nux joins the army with Max strapped to the hood of his car, to continue supplying blood. A battle ensues between the Rig and Joes forces. Furiosa drives into an approaching sand storm to evade her pursuers. Nux, driven by Joes indoctrinated belief that dying in battle will take him to Valhalla, attempts to destroy the Rig by making his car explode upon impact on the massive truck. Max escapes and restrains Nux, but the car is destroyed by the Rig. Waking up after the storm, Max sees Furiosa nearby repairing her Rig, accompanied by the Wives who are cleaning themselves with water and removing fanged metal chastity belts from their bodies. Max engages in a fight with the women and steals the Rig, but its kill switch disables the truck. Max reluctantly agrees to let Furiosa and the Wives accompany him, while Nux returns to Joe. Furiosa drives through Rock Riders territory into a narrow canyon, having previously agreed to exchange gasoline for safe passage. However, Joes forces are close behind, and Furiosa flees while the Bikers detonate the canyon walls to block Joes path. Max and Furiosa fend off the pursuing Bikers, but Joes vehicle evades the blockade and assaults the Rig. Nux boards the Rig while Joe attempts to shoot Furiosa. Angharad Joes heavily pregnant wife shields Furiosa, but falls from the Rig and is run over by Joes car, killing her and his child and leaving the remaining Wives devastated by her death. Furiosa explains to Max that they are escaping to the Green Place of Many Mothers, a location she remembers from her youth. Capable finds Nux, distraught that he contributed to the death of Joes wife touched by his remorse, she consoles him. At night, the heavy Rig gets caught in deep mud. Furiosa and Max slow Joes forces with explosives, but Joes ally, the Bullet Farmer, pursues the Rig. Nux helps free the Rig while Furiosa shoots and blinds the Bullet Farmer. He retaliates with machine gun fire and explosives. Max wanders into the dark to confront the Bullet Farmer, killing him and safely returning to the Rig with guns and ammunition. As dawn breaks, the Rig travels through swampland and desert, and the group eventually encounters a naked woman. Max identifies it as a trap, but Furiosa leaves the Rig and states her former clan affiliation, revealing that she is of the Vuvalini. The woman, Valkyrie Megan Gale, summons a group of desert bikers who realize that Furiosa is a member of their all female clan kidnapped with her mother by Immortan Joe when she was a child. Furiosa is distraught to learn that the swamp land they passed was in fact the Green Place, which is now uninhabitable. The group agree to ride their motorbikes across the immense salt flats in the hope of finding somewhere to live. Max chooses to stay behind, but after seeing visions of Glory the Child, he convinces them to return to the Citadel, which has ample water and greenery that Joe keeps for himself, and trap Joe and his army in the Biker Gangs canyon. The group begins the journey back to the Citadel, eventually encountering Joe and his remaining forces. A battle is waged by the two sides, and Furiosa is gravely wounded in the process. Joe positions his car in front of the Rig in an attempt to slow it down, while Max fights Joes eldest son, Rictus Erectus Nathan Jones. Toast the Knowing is captured and put on Joes car, but she is able to distract him, allowing Furiosa to hook Joes mask to his cars rotating wheels, tearing his lower jaw off and instantly killing him. Nux sacrifices himself by destroying the Rig, blocking the canyon, killing Rictus, and allowing Max, Furiosa, and the Wives to escape in Joes vehicle. Max donates his blood to Furiosa with the help of the Dag, to help her survive her fatal injuries. At the Citadel, the citizens are overjoyed at the sight of Joes mangled corpse, signifying the end of his despotic rule over the land. At the citizens joyful urging, Furiosa and the Wives are raised up on a lift by the child War Boys, but Max stays behind. He and Furiosa share a glance of acknowledgment before Max disappears into the crowd. Spoilers end here. Cast. Development.
