When it comes to post-apocalyptic movies, there isn’t a franchise that is more iconic than the Mad Max series. George Miller’s 1979 film chronicled the origins of a cataclysmic event that turned the world into a truly “mad” place where the remnants of humanity became locked in a war over water, oil, and other resources.
Comparisons are often made between the Mad Max film and the Western genre, as Miller incorporates elements of gunslinger films into each installment. Toecutter feels like a villain from a classic Western, using his power of intimidation to thwart the law and ensure himself a strong following of loyal goons. Toecutter may often rely on his minions to do his dirty work, but he certainly proves how dangerous he is during his brutal final battle with Max.
Although she only appears in the first film, Jessie’s importance is solidified by the later installments in the Mad Max series. She is perhaps the only character in the franchise who is genuinely compassionate and tender-hearted; while Max can't save her, he does try to honor her memory by helping innocent people throughout his adventures in the wasteland. The connection Max shares with his dearly departed wife makes him a vulnerable and relatable character.
Despite his romanticism, Praetorian Jack is an intelligent military leader and an instrumental role in the battle against Dementus. It’s Praetorian Jack’s leadership of a war rig convoy that allows Immortan Joe’s forces to strike a critical blow against their enemies. Jack certainly shows more strategic capabilities than the war boys, who are simply following their superior’s orders.
4 Lord Humungus First Appearance: 'The Road Warrior' A dangerous warlord who leads a vicious group of marauders, Lord Humungus is the main antagonist of Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior. Humungus inspires his followers to unleash their violent tendencies and prey upon the weak, allowing him to become dominant within the post-apocalyptic wasteland. Although the Mad Max franchise has been parodied many times, it doesn’t take away from how terrifying Kjell Nilsson’s performance is.
2 Imperator Furiosa First Appearance: 'Mad Max: Fury Road' Close After her debut in Mad Max: Fury Road, Furiosa instantly became known as one of the greatest female action heroes of all time. Furiosa is an inspiring leader who fights for the innocent women imprisoned by Immortan Joe to have a better future in The Green Place, but she also shows empathy for both Max and Nux.
