While 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga' revealed how the iconic heroine came to work for Immortan Joe, it conspicuously left out her eventual rebellion against him. The prequel, set decades before 'Fury Road', explores Furiosa's early life and her alliance with the ruthless warlord.
Although Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga did explain how the Mad Max franchise’s heroine ended up working for Immortan Joe, the prequel didn’t show her turning against him. The Mad Max movies already had a pretty complicated chronology before 2024’s Fury Road prequel Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.
1979’s Mad Max takes place after society has begun to break down but before the franchise’s off-screen apocalypse, 1981’s sequel The Road Warrior takes place after the end of the world, and 1985’s Beyond Thunderdome takes place even later. Seemingly, 2015’s Fury Road occurs last. However, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga complicated this. The prequel begins decades after the apocalypse when Furiosa is still a young girl. Somehow, Furiosa is only a little younger than Max in Fury Road when, according to Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga and Mad Max, he should be around 60 years older than her. The mystery around the Mad Max franchise's timeline aside, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga was a critically acclaimed addition to the series. That said, director George Miller’s prequel didn’t delve into one major question about the backstory of its title character. Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga doesn’t address Furiosa’s feud with Immortan Joe, who she is still allied with by the end of the prequel. Miller’s movie makes it abundantly clear that Immortan Joe is just as monstrous and amoral a warlord as he was in Fury Road, but it is expedient for Furiosa to align herself with him to survive. When she is first captured, Furiosa is kept alongside Immortan Joe’s female captives and barely escape
