Actress Kat Dennings reminisced about her six-hour Mad Max: Fury Road audition with Tom Hardy via TikTok. She described the experience as feeling like "an acting class on the worst day of your life." Dennings was up for a role in Immortan Joe's Brides and underwent a grueling chemistry read with Hardy. Director George Miller provided minimal direction, while an acting coach led the process.

Dennings recounted how the acting coach encouraged participants to make noises instead of lines, which Hardy particularly enjoyed. When it was time to leave, Hardy offered Dennings a ride home, even though she didn't have a car. The director met Dennings' mother upon arrival and they all enjoyed a pleasant chat. Dennings expressed her admiration for Hardy, calling him a "wonderful person" and a lifelong fan.
