Mad Max: Fury Road – Tom Hardy ‘apologizes’ to George Miller
The star remarked: “The shoot was really long. I’ve never done anything that needed that kind of resistance, and I don’t think I ever will again. And I hate to say this because I don’t want to encourage the young actors or the storytellers to believe that they need trauma and sacrifice because I truly believe that it’s unnecessary, but there’s something about the circumstances surrounding that film that I think added magic. That’s not to say it always has to be that way, but I think somehow something unique happened in that film. But damn it was hard“.
Charlize further admitted that she never “really appreciated or respected George Miller’s vision” before seeing the full film. The actress pointed out: “I thought, ‘Oh my god, this was in his head all the time and I couldn’t hear it.’ And so it’s the only film that made me think ‘If I had another chance I’d understand a little more what he tried to do the first time around“.
