Chris Hemsworth's nuttiest role to date is surely playing creeper cult leader Billy Lee in Bad Times at the El Royale, but he's set to blow that performance totally out of the water with his next blockbuster project.

Hemsworth will play the primary antagonist in George Miller's long-awaited Mad Max: Fury Road prequel Furiosa, and while it was initially rumoured that he'd be playing a younger Immortan Joe, his currently unnamed villain instead appears to be a new Immortan character entirely.

Either way, the spy photos snapped on the set show Hemsworth rocking a gigantic, scraggly beard, at one point coloured red and dyed black/grey in another.

Given Hemsworth's penchant for playing charming heroes, it'll be great to see him taking a rare opportunity to play a repugnant Bad Guy, and one who'll seemingly go blow-to-blow with Anya Taylor-Joy's young version of Imperator Furiosa.

Considering the many unforgettable villains Miller has cooked up in the Mad Max franchise over the decades, there's no doubt that Hemsworth's will be his most skin-crawlingly vile role to date.
