Detailed Bias Analysis

Progressive
Primary
The film subtly incorporates themes of political corruption and the abuse of power by local elites, highlighting issues of privilege and compromised justice, which aligns with left-leaning critiques of societal structures, while primarily functioning as a slasher narrative.
The film demonstrates significant diversity through its casting choices, featuring a mix of backgrounds among its main characters in an adaptation of a story traditionally featuring a predominantly white cast. Additionally, the narrative incorporates social commentary by exploring generational trauma and inherited violence, particularly in its portrayal of male characters.
Secondary
The film subtly integrates LGBTQ+ presence through minor characters and is notably embraced by queer audiences, who recognize the lead character as a 'scream queen queer icon.' This cultural impact, along with the filmmakers' appreciative and respectful approach, contributes to a net positive and affirming portrayal of LGBTQ+ themes and characters.
The 2025 film *I Know What You Did Last Summer* does not feature transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative centers on suspense and horror tropes typical of the slasher genre, without engaging with trans representation. Therefore, the portrayal is considered N/A due to the absence of depiction.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The film features the return of an original female character, Julie James, who maintains her established gender. New characters are introduced, but they are original to this installment and not gender-swapped versions of existing canon characters.
The provided information indicates a diverse cast and new characters like Teddy, but does not specify that any canonically established legacy characters from previous installments are being portrayed by actors of a different race. The focus is on new ensemble members rather than race-swapped returning roles.
