"Mad Max" Director Says He Wants Lady Gaga In The Next Movie As A Villain — And TBH, I'm Freaking Out

Talented , brilliant , incredible , awful , show fillet , spectacular , never the same , completely unique , completely not ever been done before , unafraid to reference or not reference .

The latest installment of the truly incredible (and loud) post-apocalypticMad Maxsaga has arrived — and let me tell you, the new prequelFuriosahas immediately become one of my favourite movies of all time.ALL HAIL ANYA TAYLOR-JOY RIDING A BIG RIG!

Like I’m talking LETTERBOXD TOP FOUR over here. I’m down bad for Mizzz Furiosa.Furiosagirl summer, I declare!!! 📢

Anyway, it sparked a true deep dive into theMad Maxworld. BesidesMad Max: Fury Road(2015), I hadn’t seen the three other films in director and writer George Miller’s epic franchise.

With the saga starting in 1979 withMad Max,there was a lot to rip through. But the one that really stood out to me was the third —Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome— purely because it stars 🚨 TINA TURNER 🚨 as the villain.

Tina Turnerplays Aunty Entity, the glam yet brutal dictator of chaotic Bartertown. Which is a casting decision that issimply the best…hehehehehoho.

One of my favourite things in this life is when a pop diva gets to be ACTRESS. Beyoncé inGoldmember,Aaliyah inQueen of the Damned(underrated),Britney SpearsinCrossroads…

… AndCherin, well everything. INCLUDINGWitches of Eastwick(1987) whichMad Maxdirector George Miller ALSO directed.

This man obviously loves when a pop diva gets to be ACTRESS just as much as me. So when we caught up with him at the Canadian red carpet premiere ofFuriosa: A Mad Max Saga,I had one question to ask him.

WithFuriosafinally under his belt, Miller still has moreMad Maxfilms to go. Which means LOTS of opportunities for more unexpected cameos. So I wanted to know… which pop diva would he want to cast as a villain in the nextMad Maxmovie?

“Well, I’ve got to say I’m a huge fan of Lady Gaga,” Miller told us. Okaaaaay, paws up George!

“Whatever she tries she’s fantastic. I think everything she’s done has really blown me away,” he went on to say. I wonder if he means ARTPOP too…

i do n’t remember ARTPOP

Lady Gaga playing a villain in The Wasteland seems like a natural progression after what I can only ASSUME will be her Oscar-worthy portrayal of Mizzzzz Harleen Quinzel inJoker: Folie à Deux.

Not only has Stefani already played a villain inAmerican Horror Story: Hotelas the blood-hungry Countess…

But, she already hasMad Max-esque outfits from the Stupid Love music video. So like, this seems like a done deal PERSONALLY.

LADY GAGA FOR THE NEXTMAD MAX!Let’s go monsters, Let’s GO!
