Center
Primary
The film's dominant themes align with progressive values by critiquing the abuse of power and wealth by a dying industrialist seeking to exploit an individual for immortality, emphasizing the struggle for individual autonomy against powerful forces.
The movie features a traditional cast predominantly composed of white actors, consistent with its production era, without any explicit DEI-driven casting choices. The narrative, while featuring a wealthy white male antagonist, frames his negative portrayal around his actions and greed rather than as a critique of traditional identities themselves.
Secondary
The television series "The Immortal" does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes within its narrative. The plot centers on a man's immortality and his pursuit by a wealthy industrialist, without incorporating elements related to queer identity or experiences.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The 1970 TV series "The Immortal" is an adaptation of James Gunn's 1964 novel of the same name. A review of the main characters and plot indicates that the genders of established characters from the source novel were maintained in the television adaptation.
The characters in "The Immortal" (1970) were original to the television series. There is no prior source material (like novels, comics, or historical records) that established their race before the show's creation, thus precluding a race swap.
