Hamilton (movie) portrays LGBTQ+ themes and presence through inclusive casting and a nuanced exploration of relationships and identities. While historical figures aren't explicitly queer, the production challenges traditional narratives and interrogates marginalized histories, creating space for broader representation and contributing to its social impact. This approach fosters an affirming environment for diverse identities.

The film portrays numerous historical figures, including Alexander Hamilton, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson, who were historically white, with actors of various non-white races, constituting multiple race swaps.
