Riley is in talks to take a role in ‘Fury Road,’ the fourth installment of the ‘Mad Max’ franchise from writer-director George Miller, according to HeatVision. This outing — whose plot is being kept a secret — takes place a short while after the story line in 1985′s ‘Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome,’ which means that Tom Hardy (‘Inception’) will have no problem playing the lead — we’re not talking an aged Max here. Keough will play one of the “Five Wives,” a group of women that Max must protect from the bad guys. Charlize Theron, Nicholas Hoult, Zoe Kravitz, Teresa Palmer and Adelaide Clemens also have been cast. The film is prepping for a start date early next year.
