Chris Hemsworth admitted to keeping the motorcycle his villainous character Dementus rode in ‘Mad Max: Furiosa.’

“'I don't know if I should admit it,'” Hemsworth said in a recent interview with The Daily Telegraph, “'I took the motorbike I had in the film. It had a radial airplane engine as its drive mechanism.'”

Hemsworth also took the opportunity to praise director George Miller for his work on the film, calling it “remarkable.”

“What's remarkable about what George has done is to be quite accurate in the potentiality of what is to come,” he said.

Miller also recently complimented the film's leads, Chris Hemsworth and Anya Taylor-Joy, for their unrecognizable transformations. Miller jokingly remarked they were  “complete frauds” after a year of editing due to their convincing performances.

Hemsworth undergoes a dramatic change to portray the villainous Dementus, sporting a long beard, shaggy hair, and even a prosthetic nose. 

Both he and Taylor-Joy are said to possess the charisma and endurance necessary to bring their roles to life

Furiosa serves as an origin story for the character Imperator Furiosa, played by Anya Taylor-Joy, who rose to prominence in the Netflix hit ‘The Queen's Gambit.’

The upcoming Mad Max prequel hits theaters on May 23.
