Before making Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, director George Miller considered using CGI to de-age Charlize Theron so she could play the younger version of her character. Instead, Miller decided to go with Anya Taylor-Joy as the young Furiosa, with Alyla Browne portraying Furiosa as a child. But if you noticed that Browne resembled Taylor-Joy more and more as the character got older in the film, then you should know that you didn’t imagine it.
Via Variety, Taylor-Joy appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show and explained how Miller used AI to blend the faces of herself and Browne.
“George Miller had the idea very early on,” said Taylor-Joy. explained Taylor-Joy. The audience was already getting used to a new Furiosa. He wanted the transition from both actors playing her to be seamless. And so I did two days of the craziest things you could ever possibly imagine. And they mixed our faces together.”
