Overview
- Multiple outlets cite a Mad Max Bible podcast claim that George Miller’s long-gestating Wasteland project is being reworked from a film into an episodic series for HBO Max.
- Warner Bros. and HBO Max have not confirmed the project, with the scoop traced to Mad Max Bible and circulated by sites including World of Reel, Gizmodo, and Dark Horizons.
- 'Nitram' writer Shaun Grant has reportedly been asked to write the series, according to the podcast’s account relayed by recent coverage.
- Reporting suggests Miller would likely produce rather than direct and that recasting is probable, with Tom Hardy having publicly voiced doubt about returning as Max.
- Unconfirmed plot details describe Max taking jobs to acquire parts for a new Interceptor and featuring Furiosa-era figures like Chumbucket and Scabrous Scrotus, with the pivot framed against Furiosa’s weak theatrical performance.
