Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Progressive

Primary

The film's central conflict and its resolution are rooted in universal themes of friendship, trauma, and courage against a supernatural evil, rather than any specific political ideology.

The film includes visible diversity within its main cast, consistent with the source material, without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles. Its narrative focuses on the characters' struggle against a supernatural entity and personal trauma, rather than offering a critical portrayal of traditional identities or making explicit DEI themes central to the plot.

Secondary

The film presents a complex portrayal, opening with a brutal homophobic hate crime that is unequivocally condemned. This is balanced by Richie Tozier's central, empathetic character arc exploring his repressed homosexuality and unrequited love, which is depicted with dignity and affirms the worth of his queer identity, leading to a net positive impact.

The film does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. While it depicts a hate crime against a gay character, Adrian Mellon, this narrative element does not pertain to transsexual identity or experiences, resulting in no depiction relevant to the evaluation criteria.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

All major characters in "It: Chapter Two" maintain the same gender as established in Stephen King's source novel and the previous film adaptation. There are no instances of characters canonically established as one gender being portrayed as a different gender.

The film adapts characters from Stephen King's novel "It." All members of the Losers' Club, including Mike Hanlon who is canonically Black, are portrayed by actors whose race aligns with their established depictions in the source material and prior adaptations. No race swaps are present.
