Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Progressive

Primary

While the villain's motivation touches on economic displacement by powerful entities, the film's central narrative prioritizes a young hero's coming-of-age, individual responsibility, and local action, resulting in a largely apolitical stance.

The movie demonstrates significant DEI through explicit racial recasting of several traditionally white comic book characters with minority actors, showcasing intentional diversity in its casting. However, the narrative itself does not explicitly critique traditional identities or center DEI themes within its storyline.

Secondary

Several characters, including Ned Leeds, Liz Allan, and Flash Thompson, who were canonically established as white in the source material, are portrayed by actors of different races in this film.

Spider-Man: Homecoming does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes within its narrative. The film focuses on Peter Parker's coming-of-age story and superheroics, with no explicit or implicit portrayal of queer identities or experiences, resulting in an N/A rating for LGBTQ+ depiction.

Spider-Man: Homecoming does not feature any identifiable transgender characters or themes. The film's narrative centers on Peter Parker's high school life and his early adventures as Spider-Man, including his conflict with the Vulture, without exploring aspects of gender identity or transsexual experiences. Consequently, there is no portrayal to assess.

The film does not feature any female characters engaging in direct physical combat. All significant action sequences involve male characters fighting other male characters, with no instances of a female character defeating male opponents in close-quarters combat.

No established legacy characters from Spider-Man comics or prior adaptations undergo a gender change in this film. All major characters maintain their canonical gender.
