Furiosa finally has a streaming release date. The latest movie in the Mad Max series, which gives Imperator Furiosa an epic origin story, is a direct prequel to Mad Max: Fury Road. With franchise helmer George Miller back in the director's chair and Anya Taylor-Joy taking over from Charlize Theron in the titular role, it delves into everything that happens before we meet her on the War Rig, kicking off with the moment Furiosa was stolen away from her home in the Green Place by the biker gang of the Warlord Dementus (Chris Hemsworth) right up until the opening moments of Fury Road.
We've got everything you need to know about Furiosa's streaming release on Max, Warner Bros.' streaming service, right here, as well as our best estimate as to when you might be able to watch the movie across the pond.
When will Furiosa be on streaming?
Furiosa now has a streaming release date: August 16, 2024. It will be arriving on Warner Bros.' streaming service Max, which is where all of their recent releases have gone, and you'll need a subscription to that service to be able to watch it there.
The movie has followed a similar trajectory to other recent Warner Bros. films – Dune 2 was released in theaters on March 1 before arriving on Max 81 days later on May 21, so Furiosa has had a pretty similar release schedule with an 84-day gap between theatrical and streaming release dates.
Now, this is a relatively speedy turnaround: Barbie, for example, hit streaming five months after its cinema release while Wonka arrived three months later.
As for UK viewers, we expect it will head to Sky and NOW TV when it comes to streaming. However, that's usually a fair amount later than the US release date. Expect that in late 2024/early 2025, is our guess.
