While Comic-Con audiences will cheer for just about anything, it seems as though George Miller’s unveiling of the first footage from Mad Max: Fury Road was crowned the king of the event. We can now see why, as Warner Bros. have released the first, extensive trailer for the 2015 tentpole, and it’s something to behold.

Running nearly three minutes, it introduces us to Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron as they’re involved in an large-scale chase, which takes place over the course of the entire film. It’s certainly nice to have Miller returning to the action genre (and the franchise that made him famous), using mostly practical effects here, resulting in what looks to be a beautiful, visceral experience. Also starring Nicholas Hoult, Zoe Kravitz, Riley Keough, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Hugh Keays-Byrne, and Nathan Jones, check out the preview below, along with the first batch of posters.

MAD MAX: FURY ROAD is the fourth film of George Miller‘s Road Warrior/Mad Max franchise co-written and directed by Miller. The post-apocalyptic action film is set in the furthest reaches of our planet, in a stark desert landscape where humanity is broken, and most everyone is crazed fighting for the necessities of life.

Within this world of fire and blood exist two rebels on the run who just might be able to restore order… There’s Max (played by TOM HARDY from The Dark Knight Rises), a man of action and a man of few words, who seeks peace of mind following the loss of his wife and child in the aftermath of the chaos.

And… Furiosa (played by CHARLIZE THERON from Prometheus), a woman of action and a woman who believes her path to survival may be achieved if she can make it across the desert back to her childhood homeland.”

Mad Max: Fury Road opens on May 15th, 2015.
