The richly imagined world of Mad Max boasts plenty of memorable villains, but the desolate landscape of the Wasteland could also believably house many other classic foes. While the likes of Immortan Joe, Lord Humungus, and Rictus Erectus make Mad Max a fascinatingly varied and frightening franchise, there are many other characters who would fit right in as villains in this world created by George Miller. While the Mad Max series boasts several sequels, if a crossover ever happened, these would be ideal candidates for inclusion.
Some of the smartest sci-fi villains of all time have characteristics that make them feel right at home within the Wasteland. From recent sci-fi releases that clearly pay homage to Miller’s creator right through to earlier classics, the post-apocalyptic, drought-stricken landscape would make for an excellent home to plenty of cunning criminals, deranged devils, and wicked wastelanders. While it’s unlikely these villains will ever come face-to-face with Max Rockatansky or fight alongside Immortan Joe, it’s fascinating to imagine them in the Mad Max universe.

Zeus
Turbo Kid (2015)
Plenty of comparisons can be made between the Mad Max franchise and the post-apocalyptic superhero happenings of Turbo Kid. Both properties explore drought-ridden worlds, and the villainous Zeus (Michael Ironside) felt like he could have stepped right out of George Miller’s Wasteland. While Zeus appeared at first to be a human, once viewers saw underneath his signature eyepatch, it became clear he was actually a robot designed to ruthlessly stamp out all competition in his world.
Robotics are nothing new to the Mad Max franchise, as Furiosa’s robotic arm showcased that cyborg technology was available within the desolate Wasteland. While Turbo Kid was set in an alternate version of 1997, much of its style and aesthetic mimicked the late 1970s and early 1980s look of the earliest Mad Max movies. With this connection in mind, everything about Zeus’s character feels like it would be perfectly transported into Miller’s dystopian world.

Boba Fett
Star Wars (1977 – Present)
As an archetypical lone wolf and skilled warrior, the Star Wars fan favorite Boba Fett has plenty in common with the titular Mad Max hero. As a formidable foe who would add an air of skills and honor to the often underhanded and sinister tactics of the Wasteland, more so than any other character in Star Wars, Boba Fett would feel right at home in Mad Max. Even his signature helmet and armor feel appropriate, considering all the strange iconography and aesthetics of the Wasteland.
Audiences have often seen Boba Fett and other Mandalorians exploring deserted landscapes and surrounded by rusty sand dunes. It’s easy to picture Boba Fett alongside other fugitives and warlords seen in the series. With a personal code of honor and enough gadgetry to rival the relatively primitive technologies of other Mad Max villains, to watch Boba Fett traverse the Wasteland would truly be a sci-fi lover’s dream come true.

After the release of Star Wars: Episode IV- A New Hope (originally just titled Star Wars), the franchise quickly exploded, spawning multiple sequels, prequels, TV shows, video games, comics, and much more.

Simon Phoenix
Demolition Man (1993)
While viewers were thrilled to watch Simon Phoenix run rampant in the distant, utopian future of 2032 in Demolition Man, another intriguing idea would be to see him wake up from a cryogenically frozen state in the dystopian landscape of the Wasteland. While the peace-loving residents of the metropolis of San Angeles didn’t know what to make of Simon Phoenix, his chaotic ruthlessness as an evil crime lord would fit right into the world of Mad Max. Without Sylvester Stallone’s John Spartan around to take him down, Simon would surely have excelled as he discovered the dark underbelly of the Wasteland.
Wesley Snipes gave a great performance in Demolition Man, and the character’s bright-colored clothing and bleached blonde hair mean his aesthetic also matches that of Mad Max. Not only would Simon’s energy suit the outrageous chaos of the Wasteland, but he’d also likely be a charismatic leader capable of gaining a similar following to that of Immortan Joe. As a wild card warlord, seeing Simon Phoenix in Mad Max is an exciting proposition.

Baron Vladimir Harkonnen
Dune (2021 – Present)
While it’s easy to picture the sinister sandworms of Dune or the reluctant heroism of Paul Atreides in the world of Mad Max, it’s the villainous Baron Vladimir Harkonnen who stands out as the perfect candidate for a crossover. In Frank Herbert’s original novel, he described the Baron as “grossly and immensely fat” and that he requires anti-gravity devices known as suspensors to support his weight. As a wealthy evildoer, the sinister energy of the Baron would make him a formidable foe within the world of Mad Max.
While the Baron’s motivations were influenced by the long-standing feud between the Harkonnens of Giedi Prime and the Atreides of Caladan in Dune, his willingness to support the extermination of familial lines would surely extend to anyone who stood in his way in the Wasteland. Both film characters of the Baron feel right at home in Mad Max, as Kenneth McMillan’s portrayal in David Lynch’s Dune feels appropriate for the original trilogy, while Stellan Skarsgård’s performance suits the Fury Road and Furiosa era much better.

General Ursus
Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970)
While the Mad Max franchise has kept its characters within the realm of humanity, it’s not out of the question to imagine that beyond the Wasteland there lay other kinds of creatures. In the original Planet of the Apes film series, there was also a desolate landscape known as the Forbidden Zone, which was populated by those outcast from the ape-led society in the films. By blending these two ideas, this could open the door for General Ursus from Beneath the Planet of the Apes to rear his head within the world of Mad Max.
General Ursus was a gorilla and the general of Ape City’s army who instigated the invasion of the Forbidden Zone, which led to the destruction of Earth. However, rather than take part in the Gorilla War, it would be an interesting turn of events for him to encounter the unpredictable soldiers, the War Boys, instead. While it’s difficult to predict who would emerge victorious, one thing that’s certain is General Ursus would fit right into this world.

The Terminator
Terminator (1984 – Present)
While the Terminator was an unstoppable killing machine created with a singular purpose, if he found his way into the world of Mad Max he would fit right in. The T-800 cybernetic organism was created by Skynet for the purposes of travelling back in time and stopping the future savior of mankind, John Connor, from ever being born. With a cyberpunk aesthetic, leather jacket, and signature sunglasses, had the Terminator been instead sent to the Wasteland, he would have made the perfect purpose-driven killing machine for Immortan Joe and the War Boys.
With the right set of programming, the Terminator would have made quick work of Mad Max and Furiosa, or if he reprogrammed, he could also fight on the side of the heroes like in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. The Terminator’s endoskeleton and durability mean he could survive within the dystopian landscape as he does not require water or sustenance to stay alive. As a product of the apocalyptic post-Judgment Day society, the Terminator already has his origins in a desolate and barren wasteland world.

Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg
The Fifth Element (1997)
As a cunning and ruthless warlord, Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg already felt like something straight out of Mad Max when audiences were introduced to him in Luc Besson’s The Fifth Element. With a flamboyant sense of fashion and sinister sensibilities, it’s easy to picture Zorg as the ruler of a Wasteland faction who would likely attempt to overthrow Immortan Joe and stamp out any attempts against him by anti-heroes like Max Rockatansky.
While the world of Mad Max is one categorized by drought and a lack of resources, Zorg would be the kind of warlord who hoards luxuries for his own use. With brute force, Zorg’s willingness to stockpile resources for himself would be his ultimate downfall, and much in the same way he met a gruesome end in The Fifth Element, he would be viciously killed by those he had undermined in Mad Max.

Ming The Merciless
Flash Gordon (1980)
Much in the same way the lack of resources on planet Earth led to warring factions in Mad Max, the sci-fi universe presented in Flash Gordon was packed with equally oppressed and conflict-ridden populations. The most villainous of all adversaries seen in Flash Gordon was Ming the Merciless, whose tyrannical, godlike aura would feel right at home in the Wasteland. As a foe who positioned himself as almost divine in nature, the self-flagellation of Ming makes him a typical Mad Max-style maniac.
Emperor Ming the Merciless was played by Max von Sydow in the 1980 Flash Gordon film and whose subsequent roles in everything from Game of Thrones to Star Wars made him a recognizable face across all genres and styles. While Sydow sadly passed away in 2020, Ming’s iconic status, going as far back as the original comic strip in 1934, means he could easily be recast with a new actor. With the power to manipulate weather, Ming’s potential to rule with an iron fist across the Wasteland is practically endless.

Duke Of New York
Escape from New York (1981)
The Duke of New York in John Carpenter’s cult favorite Escape from New York immediately comes to mind as the perfect villain to join the litany of criminals seen across the Mad Max franchise. As a cunning crook who wasted no time in kidnapping President John Harker after he crash-landed in his citywide penitentiary, it’s obvious that the Duke would quickly adapt to the harsh landscape of the Wasteland. Through a combination of fear, charisma, and resource control, the Duke would surely quickly become the leader of a ruthless gang of outlaws in George Miller’s post-apocalyptic world.
As an urban dweller, the Duke would feel right at home in the trading post Bartertown, first seen in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. Much like with Tina Turner’s incredible turn as Aunty Entity, the Duke would similarly gain a prominent position as he got to grips with the complex economy of its trade-based system. The Duke’s style and aesthetic already look right at home in the world of Mad Max, so his appearance in the franchise would be a welcome addition.

The Deacon
Waterworld (1995)
Just based on his aesthetic alone, the Deacon from the post-apocalyptic action movie Waterworld already looks like he’d fit right into the Wasteland seen throughout the Mad Max franchise. With typically unhinged performance from Dennis Hopper, the Deacon lives in a world with the total opposite problem as Mad Max, as rather than live with the consequence of widespread drought, the melting of the polar ice caps means the planet has become enveloped in water.
With his signature eyepatch, the Deacon was Soul-Keeper of the Deez and leader of the Smokers, whose entire vibe lines up perfectly with the barren world created by George Miller. Waterworld had plenty in common with Mad Max and was actually the most expensive movie of all time when it was released in 1995 (via Forbes.) While a crossover between the two franchises feels unlikely, it would be extraordinary to see the Deacon team up with Immortan Joe.
