Rictus Erectus

Post by scfc68 »

Can anyone shed anymore light on this character's presence in the movie??

I'm guessing he's somewhat of a Wez/Ironbar style henchmen? Just wondered if he's up to Lord Wez's high standard as a No 2?

In those concept art pics he appears to be a member of Gassstown.

I kinda assumed he was the guy that stomps on Max when he is captured but maybe not

ok then that probably is the big guy that stomps on Max in the screenshot I attached. So he is with Immortan Joe in the film rather then with the Gasstown gang from the above concept art?

Nathan Jones hinted on his facebook that Richtus might be Immortan's son. Also posted this pic:

Rictus Erectus is a latin for "Mouth/Jaws upright", so based on the conceptual art + trailer, he probably had a muscle/bone deformity around the jaw area and he needs to wear that rubber strips on his face (this the trailer screen screenshot) to keep his jaw in place.
