Holding off too long will cause people to start forgetting why they loved the original, and eventually they'll start to wonder "Why are they making a sequel to this now?" You can already see this sort of thing with James Cameron's Avatar sequels, with many wondering if Cameron waited too long to get started on the follow-up. Going with Atomic Blonde 2 before Furiosa would also help to establish the new franchise while the first film is still fresh on people's minds. It's similar to the success that Mark Hamill had as Luke Skywalker which was followed by years of struggling to get significant screen roles he was too well known as one character, and studios didn't want to risk their productions being overshadowed by that fame. If she becomes better known as Furiosa, though, the Atomic Blonde franchise could suffer because some fans might not be interested in seeing "just another action movie" with Theron. If she became better known as Lorraine, it likely wouldn't hurt Furiosa too much the character's already been established as part of a larger franchise, and the Mad Max connections would be enough of a draw to bring in some of the franchise's fans even if Max doesn't appear or only has a cameo. This despite the film grossing a less-than-stellar $95 million at the worldwide box office.There's also the matter of which of the two characters fans would associate Charlize Theron with the most. It's not looking great for a Fury Road follow-up at this point, but according to Theron, Atomic Blonde 2 will indeed happen. Theron has spoken in the past about the possibility of a Fury Road prequel, saying George Miller had better hurry up if he wants to make it happen, because she isn't getting any younger.

She completely transformed herself for her Oscar-winning performance as serial killer Aileen Wuornos in Monster. Indeed, Theron is an actress who's never shied away from a physically demanding role. Nevertheless, she says all the hard work was worth it. She admitted that at one point she became so sore from the beating she took at work, she couldn't even play with her kids without bursting into tears. No other details were offered beyond her simple statement: " We’re working on a sequel."Īt the same event, Theron also spoke about the physical demands put on her body during filming of Atomic Blonde.

But ultimately, Atomic Blonde had little to do with spy movie plotting and everything to do with action. The movie's plot involved some business about Broughton having to protect a man named Spyglass from agents out to kill him, and also saw her butting heads with a slimy James McAvoy.
