Actor and filmmaker Mel Columcille Gerard Gibson studied acting in Australia, where he moved with his family at the age of 12. After returning to Hollywood, he quickly established himself as an action star, bagging the role of Max Rockatansky in the first three movies of the ‘Mad Max‘ film series. Mel founded his production company, Icon Entertainment, in the 1980s and showed off his talent behind the camera, making the historical genre his niche.

The film was critically acclaimed, earning Mel both the Academy Award and the Golden Globe for his creation.
