As the promotion for Mad Max: Fury Road is now in full swing, actor Tom Hardy, who stars as the titular character, spoke about the gruelling filming in a recent interview.

The actor spoke to Entertainment Weekly about the seven month shoot in the hot desert which was completely dead and parched.

"It was mental in a brilliant way," Hardy said. "You have no concrete, no coffee shops. We were in the middle of a sandpit."

The director George Miller also spoke to IndieWire recently about avoiding reliance on a script and dialogue: "To not have to rely on dialogue...I knew right off the bat that this was going to be like a huge ballet."

The movie will be featured in the Comic-Con in July and some are expecting the teaser trailer to release soon. Miller has suggested it will be coming out in the "near future." Both the original and the new adaptation have been directed by Miller.

The story in EW also reveals that the shoot was exceptionally gruelling given the desert heat, dust and gritty atmosphere. Doing action sequences in these circumstances only made it tougher. "Nothing about this movie was a walk in the park," Theron told the publication. "Vanity went out the window."

Mad Max: Fury Road will hit theaters on May 15 2015.
