A simple action can go a long way, and one small act of kindness can change someone’s entire life. And if you were to ask young Quaden Bayles, he would probably say so aboutMad Maxdirector, George Miller. The young Australian boy, who has a type of dwarfism was subject to extreme bullying during school, and his mother, tired of the authorities taking no action, had posted a video of him.
After the video went viral, Miller, being the kind-hearted human being he is, gave Bayles a small role in one of his movies. Impressed by the young star’s talent, Miller has also cast Bayles in the upcomingMad Maxprequel,Furiosa.
Mad MaxDirector George Miller Shows What Real Kindness Is
George Milleris best known for making the critically acclaimedMad Max: Fury Road. Apart from being a brilliant filmmaker-director, Miller is also gentle, kind, and sincere. Such is his generosity that the director, distraught by seeing a viral video of a young boy, went ahead to cast him in his movies, hoping to change his life.

Quaden Bayles is an Indigenous boy from Australia who has achondroplasia, a type of dwarfism. Back in 2020, avideoposted by his mother went viral across the internet, in which he can be seen crying after suffering extreme bullying in his school.
