Leading ladies

A woman’s place is at the pinnacle of Showmax content!

Women’s Month has come and gone in August but that doesn’t mean you can’t get your fill of fantastic and fabulously fierce female movies and series to stream this year…

It’s nonstop action in this postapocalyptic action film starring Benoni-born Hollywood actress Charlize Theron as Furiosa and actor Tom Hardy (Alfie Solomons in period drama Peaky Blinders) as Max. It’s a fight for survival as Max gets entangled in Furiosa’s escape plan as she attempts to help five slave wives flee from their savage warlord owner Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne, Mr Stubb in period drama series Moby Dick).

Robyn McCall is not to be trifled with in action series The Equalizer.
