Mel Gibson talks Mad Max 4

The Australia Herald caught up with Mel Gibson to talk to him about Mad Max 4 where he revealed very little. All he did was confirm what we already knew... that he will not be Mad Max in the upcoming film. He told them quote;

”Oh gosh, I don’t know what he’s up to…Not with me, I don’t think, man, I’m a bit old and long in the tooth for that number. You need somebody who can get around a bit quicker.”

A cameo would be sweet but for me I would have found it even sweeter if he actually WAS playing an older, meaner Mad Max. Alas... it is not to be.

The new Mad Max will be played by Tom Hardy who starred in RockNRolla, Bronson and Oliver Twist. It is no surprise that Mel Gibson is not back but it would have been cool to have him return as a much older Max to continue the storyline.

The other interesting news is that hottie Charlize Theron has also been cast to star. She will play an unknown role but considering her immense talent she will most likely play a multi dimensional character... as well as eye candy for us lads.

No word on plot yet but shooting is planned to start in Australia soon! I am a huge Mad Max fan and just the thought of a new Mad Max movie makes me wet my pants with excitement! Here is hoping they dont f*ck it up like they did with Terminator Salvation
