The film maintains a neutral stance by focusing on an apolitical adventure narrative where a diverse team of extraordinary individuals combats a clear super-villain to prevent global war, rather than engaging with the political implications of its historical setting or the nature of power.
The movie features a diverse character like Captain Nemo, whose casting aligns with his literary origins, but does not include explicit race or gender swaps for traditionally white roles. The narrative focuses on an adventure plot without explicitly critiquing or negatively framing traditional identities.
The film features Mina Harker, a vampire, who consistently defeats multiple male opponents in direct physical combat. Her victories are achieved through her enhanced strength, speed, and martial abilities.
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen does not include any explicit or implicitly identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on a diverse group of literary characters engaged in a Victorian-era adventure without addressing queer identity or experiences.
The film's main characters, including Allan Quatermain, Captain Nemo, Mina Harker, Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde, Dorian Gray, and Tom Sawyer, retain their established genders from their respective literary sources. The Invisible Man character, Rodney Skinner, is a new character for the film, and his gender is consistent with the canonical Invisible Man (Griffin).
All major characters in the film, including Allan Quatermain, Captain Nemo, Mina Harker, and Dr. Jekyll, are portrayed by actors whose race aligns with their established canonical or historical depictions. There are no instances of a character's race being changed from their source material.
