Quaden Bayles: Bullied boy with dwarfism reveals his NEXT movie project in Hollywood
QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA: The dwarf Indigenous boy who went viral as a victim of school bullying, Quaden Bayles, has revealed that he has finished shooting for his part in the newest 'Mad Max' movie and is working on two other unique projects. Director George Miller cast the now-11-year-old opposite Chris Hemsworth in his upcoming film 'Furiosa,' a prequel to his 2015 post-apocalyptic action smash 'Fury Road.'
The entire world rallied behind Quaden after his mother Yarraka Bayles posted a video of the nine-year-old weeping over his school bullies in February 2020. The video catapulted him to fame. The heartbreaking video prompted Miller to have Quaden appear in front of the camera, as he explained in an interview with Good Weekend.

What is Quaden Bayles' next project?
Quaden is currently working on another big film project as well as his own original music. "I am filming a little something, something going on. I can't say," the bullied boy with dwarfism told NITV. "I've been working on some music, making some beats at school. I'm going in the studio and doing some mad raps with my friends. I want to start learn how to rap, start freestyling," he detailed. "Mad Max, that's finished. I've got something coming, so stayed tuned. I've got a big surprise."
'Furiosa,' the fifth installment in the Max Max series, which started in 1979 with Mel Gibson as the title character, will also star Chris Hemsworth and Tom Burke. It will tell the origin tale of Fury Road's terrifying heroine Furiosa, who was played by Charlize Theron in the previous film.
'I didn't know I was going to be who I am today'
In addition, Quaden used the occasion to express his gratitude to the people who helped him become famous after his mother posted a video of him sobbing after being bullied at school because of his dwarfism. "Mad Max was my first ever big movie role. For me, I was like 'wow'. I didn't know I was going to be who I am today, Quaden Bayles," he stated. People can recognize Quaden on the street. "Everyone says, 'there's that kid Quaden Bayles, oh my god. Bro, can I get a photo with you?'. Like yeah, bro, you can get a photo." he went on. "I appreciate all the support from everyone that watched my documentary and listens to the stuff I say."
