  Abstract:  The Mad Max series enshrines the cinegoers’ memory for many years and it has been considered as a cult classic. Along with the new sequel of Mad Max, Max’s got a new face. Despite the fact that, it’s not the only thing which has been changed with the last film. Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) came in for criticism about the new Max and his manliness, and it draws a considerable amount of media attention to the gender representations. As long as the representations of men and masculinity is analysed within the context of gender studies and any other interdisciplinary approaches of the media outputs will raise the awareness of public about gender representations on the media.

Keywords: Mad Max, masculinity, violence, hegemonic masculinity, representations of men.
