    George Miller Shows Off Mad Max 4 Cars

    Days after casting rumors surfaced, director George Miller is now showing off the vehicles that will be driven (and presumably wrecked) in Mad Max 4.

    Does that mean the movie will definitively happen? Not yet. I recall he also showed off sets that were under construction for the ill-fated Justice League: Mortal. If memory serves me correct, he was accepting an award via satellite where he was sitting in the middle of what was supposed to be the Hall of Justice. And that project was further along in development at the time (he’d already cast most of the lead roles by then).

    He confirms in the video interview that casting is still under-way saying, “Despite all the stuff that we see on the net and so on, I don’t even know who the final cast’s gonna be.” Fair enough.

    What I found more interesting was how at the half-way point, Miller discussed bringing productions to Australia. If you’ll remember, he fought tooth and nail to get the production of Justice League to shoot exclusively in his home country. Thus ensuring that their local film economy would keep going and people would have jobs. Say what you will about the would-be movie, but you have to respect Miller for pushing as hard as he did.
