Detailed Bias Analysis

Progressive
Primary
The film is expected to explore the complex ethics of government-sanctioned anti-hero teams, balancing themes of individual redemption and autonomy against the necessity and potential overreach of state control. This nuanced approach, critiquing power dynamics from multiple angles, positions it as politically neutral.
The film incorporates significant diversity in its character representation, featuring roles that were traditionally white and male in the comics now portrayed by minority and female actors. The narrative, however, does not appear to explicitly critique traditional identities or center strong DEI themes.
Secondary
The character Taskmaster, originally established as male in Marvel Comics, is portrayed as female (Antonia Dreykov) in this film, continuing the character's depiction from previous MCU installments.
The character Ghost, originally depicted as a white male in Marvel Comics, is portrayed by Hannah John-Kamen, an actress of mixed race, in Thunderbolts*. This constitutes a race swap from the character's source material.
As 'Thunderbolts*' is an upcoming film slated for 2025, there is currently no public information available regarding its plot, characters, or themes, including any potential LGBTQ+ depictions. Therefore, an evaluation of its portrayal is not possible at this time.
As 'Thunderbolts*' is scheduled for release in 2025, there is currently no available information regarding its plot or characters to assess the portrayal of transsexual individuals or themes. Therefore, an evaluation of its net impact is not applicable at this time.
As 'Thunderbolts*' is scheduled for release in 2025, specific combat scenes and character interactions are not yet available for analysis. Therefore, it is not possible to determine if the film contains instances of female characters defeating male opponents in direct physical combat.
