It was announced in October 2018 that George Miller had set his next directorial effort, which was described as being “epic in scope”, and was expected to begin filming in 2019.[2] Idris Elba and Tilda Swinton were announced as being cast the same month.[3]

In a July 2019 interview, Miller stated that pre-production would begin on the film in late 2019, with filming beginning on March 2, 2020 between Australia, Turkey and the United Kingdom.[4][5][6] However it was delayed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] It began filming in November 2020 in Australia.[8]
