Arnold Schwarzenegger’s character in the 2015 film Maggie is Wade Vogel.
Wade Vogel is the father of Maggie, a teenager infected during a zombie-like epidemic. Rather than focusing primarily on action, Maggie presents the outbreak through a family drama about caregiving, fear, and the gradual consequences of infection.
Schwarzenegger plays Wade as a protective father who returns home after learning that Maggie has been exposed. The film’s central tension comes from his determination to stay with her even as her condition worsens and authorities treat infected people as a public danger.
Maggie was directed by Henry Hobson and written by John Scott 3. Abigail Breslin plays Maggie, while Joely Richardson portrays Caroline, Wade’s wife. The film uses a quieter, more melancholic tone than many outbreak movies and spends much of its running time on the emotional impact of the disease rather than large-scale survival set pieces.
