Chris Hemsworth found it "somewhat liberating and refreshing" to ditch the "heroic Thor space" and play a villain in 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga'. The 40-year-old actor has starred as Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe since the 2011 film of the same name and reprised the role in several subsequent movies, but he was grateful to step away from playing a hero to star as Dementus, the warlord leader of the Biker Horde, which abducted Furiosa, and eventual ruler of Gastown, in George Miller's fifth instalment in the blockbuster post-apocalyptic action franchise.

Anya Taylor-Joy has "no chill". The 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Story' actress was bullied at school and grew up feeling she was all "wrong", which she believes is because her intensity and passion can be "frightening" for some people.
