Maximus “Max” Broussard

• Film: Do Revenge (2022)
• Portrayed by: Austin Abrams
• Occupation: Student at Rosehill High School
• Role: Main antagonist
• Skills: Charisma, manipulation, and social influence

Personality: Max is charming and socially confident, but beneath that image, he is arrogant, vindictive, and controlling. He manipulates people and public opinion to protect his reputation, presenting himself as the victim when confronted.

Background: Max previously dated Drea Torres. Resenting her, he deliberately distributed an intimate video she had privately sent him, then denied responsibility. When Drea confronted and punched him, she faced disciplinary consequences.

Relationships: Drea is his ex-girlfriend and revenge target. He later dates Tara while secretly cheating with several girls. His sister, Gabbi, becomes romantically involved with Eleanor Levetan.

Story: Drea and Eleanor team up to expose him. Their first attempt reveals his cheating, but Max and Tara claim their relationship is polyamorous, preserving his popularity. At the Admissions Party, Max admits to leaking Drea’s video and threatens both girls. Eleanor secretly records his confession and broadcasts it.

Ending: His classmates turn against him, and he is expelled. He later attends a toxic masculinity support group; whether he truly changes remains unclear.

Other important details about Max:

• Style: His wardrobe is inspired by Harry Styles, combining colorful clothing with pearl necklaces, heart earrings, and playful accessories. He also wears his school bow tie deliberately crooked, giving his uniform a casual, individual touch.
• Social status: Max is Rosehill’s golden boy and belongs to its most elite clique. Elliot Tanners acts as his right-hand man, while Montana is another member of their circle.
• Public persona: He presents himself as progressive, sensitive, and supportive of women. He even starts a club called “The cis hetero men championing female-identifying students league” in Drea’s honor while concealing his responsibility for hurting her.
• Hypocrisy: His apparent feminism is part of his carefully maintained image. Netflix describes him as a “fake woke misogynist hypocrite,” highlighting the difference between his public values and private behavior.
• Character interpretation: His defining trait is his need to control how others see him. His charm helps him avoid consequences, while his cruelty becomes more obvious when someone threatens his reputation. This is an interpretation of his behavior in the story.

Looks: Max has hazel eyes and tousled, wavy light-brown hair, often swept away from his forehead. He has a slim build, fair skin, and a youthful, clean-shaven face. His relaxed posture and frequent smirk contribute to his confident appearance.

Clothing: His style is colorful and fashionable, with vintage-inspired shirts, cardigans, and casually styled school uniforms. He accessorizes with pearl necklaces and heart earrings, sometimes wearing his bow tie crooked. His wardrobe was inspired by Harry Styles, giving him a playful, slightly androgynous look.

During Max’s “Admissions Party,” he had gone through the phones reception had collected, having his ways of getting through passcodes. He eventually landed on User’s phone and discovered that they had been stalking him and taking photos and videos of him throughout the years.
