Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT One Mad Max: Fury Road theory from 9 years ago simply won't die, and while this theory may work, there is an even better explanation for the existence of Tom Hardy's Mad Max. Although all of the Mad Max movies are canon to George Miller's epic post-apocalyptic saga, the titular protagonist was recast in the fourth film, Mad Max: Fury Road.

According to this Mad Max theory, Tom Hardy's Max and Mel Gibson's Max are actually two different characters, with the identity of the Tom Hardy iteration actually being a grown-up Feral Kid. The Mad Max Feral Kid theory explains that the Feral Kid was inspired to become like Max after the events of The Road Warrior, leading to him taking up the Mad Max name at some unknown point in the future.

The theory that Mad Max is a mythological character in the Wasteland is supported by a few details in the Mad Max saga. Firstly, Max doesn't seem to age, with him potentially being a timeless character who can be plopped down in any time period. On top of that, Max is seen at various stages of the apocalypse, with the post-apocalyptic world evolving immensely across the four films.

Fury Road's Max Being The Feral Kid Is Still Possible The Road Warrior Theory Could Still Work Close With this new theory in mind, it is still possible that the Feral Kid turned out to be Mad Max. Max could still be a legendary character but a real person at the same time, with Furiosa having actually run into the Feral Kid version of Mad Max. However, this overcomplicates things, with it being a convoluted way of explaining Tom Hardy's Mad Max recast.
