Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Progressive

Primary

The film primarily focuses on Peter Parker's personal growth, individual responsibility, and the challenges of balancing his superhero duties with his civilian life, rather than engaging with explicit political ideologies. Its narrative avoids taking a strong stance on societal or governmental issues, presenting a largely apolitical coming-of-age story.

Spider-Man: Homecoming demonstrates significant diversity through its explicit recasting of several traditionally white comic book roles with minority actors. However, the narrative maintains a neutral stance on traditional identities, focusing on the hero's journey without explicit critique.

Secondary

Several characters, including Ned Leeds, Flash Thompson, Liz Allan, and Herman Schultz (Shocker), who were canonically white in the source comics, are portrayed by actors of different races in the film.

Spider-Man: Homecoming does not include any explicit LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on Peter Parker's journey as Spider-Man and his high school life, without addressing queer identity in any capacity, resulting in no depiction.

Spider-Man: Homecoming does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The film's plot focuses on Peter Parker's high school life and his early adventures as Spider-Man, without engaging with transgender identity or experiences.

The film does not feature any female characters engaging in direct physical combat where they defeat one or more male opponents. Female characters are present but do not participate in action sequences of this nature.

All major characters in Spider-Man: Homecoming maintain their established genders from the source material. While the character Michelle Jones uses the nickname "MJ," she is a new character and not a gender-swapped portrayal of Mary Jane Watson, who is also female in the comics.
