Mad Max: Fury Road

What a FANTABULOUS episode this is! We have the magnificent Cathy Yan, director of Birds of Prey, on to talk all about Mad Max: Fury Road. Cathy discusses what it’s like making her own standalone film in a “sequalized environment.” She elaborates on the function of using practical effects and stunts. And she discusses working with Margot Robbie and further developing Harley Quinn’s character.

You can watch Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn in theaters on February 7th.

And if you haven’t seen Mad Max: Fury Road…what?
