Center
Primary
The series leans right by primarily focusing on national security and the necessity of proactive intelligence operations to counter a clear external threat, emphasizing the competence and dedication of state actors in protecting national interests.
The series features a diverse cast reflecting its Israeli and Iranian setting, which is integral to its geopolitical espionage narrative. The story focuses on the complexities of international conflict and individual loyalties, rather than explicitly engaging with or critiquing traditional Western identities or specific DEI themes.
Secondary
Tehran features a gay character, Peyman, whose secret relationship and identity are central to his tragic arc in Season 2. The show portrays the severe dangers faced by LGBTQ+ individuals in Iran with empathy, framing the obstacles and ultimate demise as consequences of external, oppressive forces and manipulation. While ending tragically, the depiction implicitly affirms the worth of his life and love by highlighting the injustice of his situation.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Tehran is an original spy thriller series created for television. It does not adapt pre-existing source material or historical figures, meaning all characters are new creations for the show. Therefore, no characters have a prior canonical or historical gender to be swapped from.
Tehran is an original series, meaning all its characters were created for this specific show. There are no pre-existing canonical or historical characters whose race could have been altered, thus no race swaps occurred.
