Charlize Theron has confirmed the fears of men’s rights activists: “Mad Max: Fury Road” is indeed an “incredible feminist movie.”
Theron, who plays Furiosa, a commander leading a band of fugitives, discussed the film’s feminist overtones during an interview on Thursday at the Cannes Film Festival in France.
Theron said, “You know what I think is even more powerful about it is that director George Miller didn’t have a feminist agenda up his sleeve, and I think that’s what makes the story even more powerful, especially how the women are represented in it.”
