Detailed Bias Analysis

Primary
The film leans left by centering its core conflict on the exploitation of a vulnerable community by a greedy industrialist, championing a diverse group of heroes who fight for justice and empower the oppressed against unchecked corporate power.
The movie demonstrates significant DEI primarily through its casting choices, featuring a diverse ensemble and explicitly recasting a traditionally white lead role with an African American actor. However, the narrative itself maintains a traditional framing, focusing on universal themes of justice and heroism without explicitly critiquing traditional identities.
Secondary
The 2016 remake features several characters whose races differ from their portrayals in the 1960 original. The leader, originally played by a white actor, is portrayed by a Black actor, and other key roles were cast with Asian, Hispanic, and Native American actors, constituting clear race swaps.
The film portrays a community that is implicitly Christian as victims of ruthless oppression. The narrative aligns with the dignity of these people, whose church and way of life are attacked by the villain, positioning the audience to sympathize with them and their plight.
The film does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on a group of disparate individuals uniting to protect a town, with no explicit or implied queer representation.
The film "The Magnificent Seven" (2016) is a Western action movie that does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on a group of gunmen protecting a town, without engaging with LGBTQ+ identities or issues.
The film features Emma Cullen as the primary female character involved in the conflict. While she participates in the final battle, her actions are limited to using a firearm from a distance. There are no scenes depicting her or any other female character engaging in or winning close-quarters physical combat against male opponents.
The 2016 remake maintains the male gender of all seven protagonists and the primary antagonist from the original 1960 film and its source material. While new female characters are introduced, no established character from prior versions undergoes a gender change.
