Primary

The movie features a visibly diverse supporting cast, but its lead roles are played by white actors, and there are no explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. The narrative centers on themes of free will and corporate critique, without explicitly portraying traditional identities negatively or making DEI themes central to its core message.
Secondary
