George Miller is an acclaimed Australian filmmaker best known for directing the Mad Max series, which revolutionized the action genre with its high-octane car chases and post-apocalyptic landscapes. His career spans over four decades, with a diverse filmography that includes the family-friendly Babe: Pig in the City and the animated hit Happy Feet, which earned him an Academy Award.
This episode focuses on Miller's upbringing, and his films from Mad Max (1979) to Babe: Pig in the City (1998).
Connection to last season: After directing God of War II, Cory Barlog traveled to Australia to collaborate with George Miller on a potential Mad Max game. During this time, Cory regarded George as his storytelling mentor, absorbing valuable lessons that he would later bring to God of War (2018). He often credits the insights gained from George as key influences on the game's story.
