Detailed Bias Analysis

Progressive
Primary
The film incorporates progressive elements such as diverse casting and a central conflict involving an identity-targeting bioweapon, alongside a critique of state intelligence's past moral compromises. However, its ultimate resolution emphasizes individual heroism, duty, and personal sacrifice for family, balancing these themes without explicitly promoting a singular political ideology.
The movie demonstrates significant DEI through the explicit casting of a Black actress in the traditionally white/male 007 designation. However, the narrative maintains a largely neutral or positive framing of traditional identities, with the central white male protagonist portrayed heroically without explicit critique.
Secondary
No Time to Die features an incidental depiction of an LGBTQ+ character. Q's homosexuality is briefly acknowledged through a casual mention of a male date, but this detail is not central to the plot or his character arc. The portrayal is neither explored in depth nor used for positive or negative narrative impact, resulting in a neutral overall assessment.
The film features Paloma, a CIA agent, who demonstrates exceptional skill in close-quarters combat, defeating multiple male opponents using martial arts and physical techniques during a mission in Cuba.
The characters of Moneypenny and Felix Leiter, who were historically portrayed as white in previous installments and source material of the James Bond franchise, are portrayed by Black actors (Naomie Harris and Jeffrey Wright, respectively) in this film.
No Time to Die does not include any transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on James Bond's mission and personal relationships, with no elements related to transgender identity or experiences.
The film introduces new characters, including a female character who takes on the 007 designation. However, these are original characters created for the film, not gender-swapped versions of previously established legacy characters. All existing canonical characters maintain their established genders.
