He added to the Sydney Morning Herald: "What [production designer] Colin Gibson and George have done creating that world, it's so exciting for people involved in the process. It quite possibly could reinvigorate the whole live-action action film again." He also spoke on Hardy, saying: “And Tom is intense. He's going to be a great Mad Max."
