Keough will reportedly play one of the Five Wives - a group of women that Max Rockatansky, played by Tom Hardy ("Inception"), has to save.

Also joining Keough and Hardy are cast members Charlize Theron, Teresa Palmer ("Bedtime Stories"), Adelaide Clemens ("X-Men Origins: Wolverine") and Nicholas Hoult ("A Single Man").

Production is reportedly scheduled to begin in Australia sometime this August.

Keough started modeling at the age of 14 and has walked for a handful of high-profile fashion designers, including Dolce & Gabbana and Christian Dior. She made her acting debut this year in "The Runaways," playing opposite to Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning.
