Furiosa introduces the History Man to the Mad Max universe.
Here’s why that might be a huge deal for this film franchise.
But to get home, Furiosa fought the world.
But asAnya Taylor-Joysteps in forCharlize TheroninFuriosa, the narrator serves a different, more important in-universe purpose.
In a recent interview withEW,FuriosadirectorGeorge Millershed some light on this voice from the shadows.
Thats a narrator called the History Man, Miller revealed.
So, hes the narrator.
And they all are narrated by a figure who introduces himself as a History Man.
Even those who havent read the comics might recall a tattooed figure who tells the stories of the past.
That said, its never confirmed that shes meant to be part of the History Men group.
By bringing a History Man into the film,Furiosamakes stronger gestures toward continuity.
Thus far, the fourMad Maxfilms have had loose connections to one another.
Some viewers may balk at the idea, saying that the franchise never needed strict continuity.
But, as with all thing Max, well accept it… if Miller can make it epic.
Furiosa opens in theaters on May 24.
