The movie maintains traditional casting for its central character, consistent with the historical context of the original story. Its narrative focuses on the protagonist's journey of survival and ingenuity, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or incorporating central DEI themes.
Secondary
The film portrays Christianity as a foundational source of moral guidance, resilience, and hope for Robinson Crusoe during his isolation. His faith is depicted as instrumental in his survival and his efforts to civilize Friday, aligning the narrative with its virtues.
The film 'Robinson Crusoe' (referring to general adaptations of the classic novel) does not feature any explicit LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on survival and human companionship without exploring queer identities or relationships, resulting in no discernible LGBTQ+ portrayal.
