ComingSoon wrote:Rumored for a part in the film for some time, Transformers: Dark of the Moon star Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has officially joined the cast of George Miller's Mad Max: Fury Road, Just Jared reports.

Also starring Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron Nicholas Hoult, Zoe Kravitz, Adelaide Clemens and Riley Keough, Mad Max: Fury Road is the first of two films that will be shot back to back, rebooting the post-apocalyptic world depicted in Miller's original Mad Max, The Road Warrior and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.

Huntington-Whiteley will play one of the "five wives", a group of five women who are being transported across the film's post-apocalyptic wasteland. Kravitz and Keough play two of the other wives.

Mad Max: Fury Road is gearing up to shoot in Africa next month. Check back for details on the production as they become available.

Don't knock it till you try it.

Sounds good to me. I've been curious about a Mad Max remake. But i will admit it will me a little weird not having Mel Gibson or Tina Turner in it. They really did make the movies. We'll see if the new cast can do the old justice.

Yeah I don't really see Rosie becoming the 'big star' that Megan did even briefly and/or arguably still is.

Megan came along during a perfect storm. Transformers going live action for the first time along with a relatively 'big name' for whatever its worth in Bay directing and Spielberg producing.

Megan got incredibly lucky to ride that storm. Also incredibly stupid for shooting her way out of DOTM.

Rosie on the other hand to me really is 'that chick' who was in DOTM. That's it.

10 Years from now. Both Rosie and Megan will probably be forgotten and only referred to in conversation as 'those models/hot chicks in those Transformers movies'.

Megan hasn't had a hit on her own merit since leaving Transformers or through being carried by other 'it' stars like Seyfried and Brolin, etc.

Rosie will probably stick around as long as her name is attached to Statham but that's it.
