Supermodel Abbey Lee Kershaw is on the way to showcasing even more of her talents in the feature film Mad Max: Fury Road – the fourth in the series of action films. And that’s not all: her role in the futuristic drama has required a serious grunge-chic makeover from her usual polished appearance on the catwalk – complete with candy pink locks.

The film is slated for release in 2013 and filming took place over this summer. Abbey Lee isn’t the only face familiar from the fashion world to be involved – ELLE favourite Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, already a veteran with a role in Transformers: Dark of the Moon under her belt, also has a part.

The lead roles will be played by Inception muscleman Tom Hardy and yet another ELLE cover star, Charlize Theron.

You can’t say we don’t know how to pick ‘em.
