Colonel Joseph "Joe" Moore, also known as the Immortan Joe, is a fictional character in the Australian post-apocalyptic action film series Mad Max, first appearing as the main antagonist of the 2015 film Mad Max: Fury Road, and also serving as a major character in Fury Road's companion comic book series of the same name and its 2024 prequel Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. In the radioactive, post-apocalyptic wasteland of the series, Immortan Joe is a powerful warlord; his cult and army of fanatical "War Boys" revere him as a god of Norse mythology, who will lead them to Valhalla. He dominates the regional economy through his control over the Citadel, one of the only remaining sources of fresh water in the wasteland. However, Joe is also incredibly sick due to radiation. His desire to breed a genetically healthy heir to his kingdom leads him to acquire and mistreat a harem of sex slaves, a candidate for whom, Imperator Furiosa, becomes his trusted military lieutenant on taking down the Warlord Dementus in Furiosa, before turning against him to free Joe's remaining slaves from the Citadel, thus triggering the events of Fury Road. In Fury Road, Immortan Joe was portrayed by Hugh Keays-Byrne, who previously portrayed the Toecutter in the original Mad Max. In Furiosa, Immortan Joe was portrayed by Lachy Hulme as Keays-Byrne died in 2020.
