Prequels are tough to get right, but George Miller's return to the Mad Max wasteland in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga nailed it. The trailer alone is a thrill ride, so you can only imagine the action packed into the 2-hour and 28-minute flick. We've already dubbed it one of the top five films of 2024 (so far).
Furiosa debuted in theaters in late May and made its way to digital on-demand services just a month later. Now, it finally has an official streaming date — Furiosa will make its streaming debut on Max on Aug. 16, 2024.
Here's everything you need to know about how to watch Furiosa at home, including one Max streaming deal that might let you watch it for free.
What is Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga about?
A prequel to 2015's Mad Max: Fury Road, Furiosa centers around Imperator Furiosa (played first by Charlize Theron, now by Anya Taylor-Joy). As a child, she grew up in the Green Place, an idyllic refuge where she was safe from the wasteland horrors of the desert. However, after she's kidnapped from this refuge and taken into the horde of the warlord Dementus (Chris Hemsworth), she spends her whole life trying to get back home.
"Much of the aforementioned plot can be gleaned from the trailers — that Furiosa is a prequel means she will inevitably end up the Immortan's right hand, his 'Imperator' — but the movie's bygone conclusions never rob it of its ferocity. Instead, Miller enters into a sad*stic game of expectations by playing with narrative point of view," Mashable film critic Siddhant Adlakha writes in his review.
Take a peek at the extremely shiny and chrome trailer:
Is Furiosa worth watching?
Furiosa earned a top-five spot on our list of the best movies of 2024, and other critics agree. On Rotten Tomatoes, Miller's epic prequel has a "certified fresh" 90 percent critic rating and 89 percent audience rating. It may not have done well at the box office, pulling in a measly $26 million domestically on its opening weekend, but box office numbers aren't everything.
As Mashable's reviewer put it, "Furiosa is a magnificent, pulse-pounding achievement unlike anything you'll see this year."

Best Max streaming deal for most people: Save 16% on Max with ads annual subscription
Credit: Max
Max (with ads) yearly subscription
$99.99 per year (save 16%)
If you don't mind ad interruptions in your content, Max subscriptions start at just $9.99 per month. You could easily sign up for a single month to watch Furiosa, then cancel before you're charged for another. However, if you stick around for the long haul, you can save some money. An annual plan with ads goes for $99.99 per year, which breaks down to only $8.33 per month. That's 16% (or $1.66 per month) cheaper than paying for a monthly subscription. The only real downside is that you have to splurge on a full year upfront.

If ads are the bane of your existence, there are two ad-free tiers to choose from: Max Ad-Free and Max Ultimate Ad-Free. The basic Max Ad-Free tier will run you $16.99 per month, while Max Ultimate goes for $20.99 per month. If you choose a yearly plan instead, it'll only cost you $169.99 per year (about $14.17 per month) or $209.99 per year (about $17.50 per month). That's a total savings of 16% on either plan.
Note: Both tiers offer an ad-free viewing experience, but the Ultimate tier takes things a step further with 4K Ultra HD video quality and Dolby Atmos immersive audio.
