Kyle Buchanan wrote a book called "Blood, Sweat & Chrome: The Wild & True Story of Mad Max: Fury Road", and to celebrate it’s release he posted some fun behind the scenes photos on his Twitter.

My book "Blood, Sweat & Chrome: The Wild & True Story of Mad Max: Fury Road" has been out for a month! Let's celebrate that with some never-before-seen casting photos. Here's Gal Gadot from her London audition to play Furiosa. (And she almost got the role.) pic.twitter.com/eApdG5HeQG

Gal Gadot almost got the starring role.


Here is Charlize and Tom's very first casting meeting. They had a Skype call with George Miller that day so he could get a sense of their screen chemistry. pic.twitter.com/qXRtJDEhV7

Nicholas Hoult was just 19 when he auditioned for FURY ROAD. George Miller was reluctant to even see him for the role of Nux because Hoult is 6 inches taller than Tom Hardy. But casting director Ronna Kress kept pushing for it. (He'd be 25 by the time the film came out.) pic.twitter.com/nQTm3VT1ED
