The original Furiosa depicter insists she understands why neither the 'Mad Max: Fury Road' director nor the main star of the prequel made an effort to contact her over the project.

AceShowbiz - Charlize Theron isn't upset that Anya Taylor-Joy hasn't spoken to her about "Furiosa". The 47-year-old actress portrayed Imperator Furiosa in the film "Mad Max: Fury Road" but the role will be filled by "The Queen's Gambit" actress in George Miller's prequel movie and Theron isn't concerned that neither Taylor-Joy nor the director have been in contact.

"No, but I get that. It's always tricky. Who wants to pick up the phone and say, like, 'Hey, we're going to do this without you.' No one wants to do that. So, I totally get that. And I love George. I know I'll talk to him again. I think it was just too hard," the Oscar-winning star said when asked if Anya or George had spoken to her about the part.

"Mad Max: Fury Road" was acclaimed by the critics but Charlize recalled how making the movie was brutal. The "Hancock" actress told The Hollywood Reporter, "Listen, I know I said, 'Oh, as an actor, you want to be challenged,' but you don't want it to be that bad."

"It was a long, long shoot. I have never done anything that needed that kind of endurance, and I don't think I ever will (again)," Charlize continued. "I don't know what production on the prequel was like, but I want to believe it was less."

"And I hate saying this because I don't ever want to encourage young actors or storytellers to believe that they need trauma or sacrifice because I really, really don't believe you do, but there's a little bit about the circumstances around that movie that I think gave it the magic."

"It doesn't mean it has to always be that, but I do think somehow the lightning in a bottle that you're always trying to catch happened on that movie. But, man, it was f****** tough."
