Furiosais the fifth installing in theMad Maxmovie seriesand the only instalment in the franchise that does not sport Max Rockatansky as one of its atomic number 82 . However , despite channelise its focus towardsMad Max : Fury Road ’s distaff jumper lead , the pic does not shy away from in short sport Max .
Appearing in a vista from the picture show ’s second half , but beforeFuriosa ’s conclusion , Max can be seen standing next to his Interceptor while watching Anya Taylor - Joy ’s Furiosa struggling to go in the rough wasteland .

Who Plays Mad Max In Furiosa
Tom Hardy’s Regular Stunt Double Plays The Character
SinceFuriosa : A Mad Max Sagafeatures a blink - or - miss Mad Max cameo in which Max ’s face is not even seeable , it is hard not to assume that Tom Hardy is play the character in the prequel . However , the player who make for Max inFuriosa ’s castisJacob Tomuri , Tom Hardy ’s stunt double fromMad Max : Fury Road . Tomuri has also antecedently served as Hardy ’s stunt double in other grown - budget movies likeLegend , The Revenant , andVenom . Even in Tom Hardy ’s upcoming action movie , Havoc , Tomuri continues playing Hardy ’s stunt forked , showcasing their tenacious - condition professional partnership .
Since Tomuri has consistently been cast as Tom Hardy ’s doubled , it makes sense that he was featured inFuriosa ’s challenging but narratively unimportant Mad Max cameo scene . As George Miller corroborate , Jacob Tomuri was onFuriosa : A unrestrained Max Saga ’s set for other stunts , empty the director realize there was no practiced pick to play Max than Tom Hardy ’s recollective - condition stunt bivalent .

Somewhere Between The Third And The Fourth Film
George Miller disclosed thatFuriosa ’s eventsunfold 15 age beforeMad Max : Fury Road . He also added that " Max is lurking around somewhere in this story , " which is exactly what he seems to be doing in the abbreviated cameo view . SinceMad Max Beyond Thunderdometakes blank space somewhere in the early 2000s andMad Max : Fury Roadensues several decades afterThunderdome ’s upshot , it would be safe to say thatthe cameo setting lie somewhere between the third(Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome ) and the fourth ( Mad Max : Fury Road ) installmentof the moving-picture show franchise .
queerly , however , the Mad Max cameo moment inFuriosaseems identical toMad Max : Fury Road ’s hatchway scene . In both , Max fend beside his Interceptor and stare at the expanse while forcing down a meal . Although the camera angle in theFuriosacameo is slightly different , it is hard not to notice the parallels between the two polar moments from the enfranchisement .
