The film leans left due to its central conflict being driven by the surface world's environmental destruction and its championing of a solution based on inter-species coexistence and environmental responsibility.
The movie demonstrates significant DEI through the casting of a person of color in the lead role, which has traditionally been portrayed as white. The narrative, however, primarily focuses on environmental themes and political conflict, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities.
Secondary
The film "Aquaman" (2018) does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or explicit themes. The narrative focuses on Arthur Curry's origin story, his relationship with Mera, and the conflict for the Atlantean throne, without incorporating queer identities or storylines.
