There is a mixed message whether Mel Gibson will be in this one or not. MovieFone.com has a short synopsis saying he is going to revive his role as the revenging cop. But other stories online just as reliable have it as not yet or not at all. Mad Max without Mel Gibson. Umm is that not like having a peanut butter and jelly sandwich without the peanut butter. But hey what the F**K do I know . I said Star Trek would suck with out the original crew and it turned out to be one of the best ever made in that franchise.

Details are still slim on the movie but I read at Cinimatical That the original Mad Max director George Miller — who most recently gave us Happy Feet — will once again be at the helm and has cast Charlize Theron as the leading lady. Other rumors have Sam Worthington from terminated salvation being cast also. In what role who knows . Maybe that of Max himself. But IMBD has a confirmed Tom Hardy as another actor. One which was previous downplayed by other sites of movie and television genre. you see confusing aint it…

?Reuters have also reported that Mel is most likely not in it and that Tom Hardy is now the man . And that report is a day old. Well maybe a jelly sandwich is what they are offering after all.

Theron, Hardy for Mad Max 4?

Theron is in talks to play the female lead.

Plot details are being kept under wraps.

What is known is that the film takes place a short while after the story detailed in 1985’s Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.
