Thunderbolts* (2025)

The film critiques government accountability and political maneuvering through a narrative focused on universal themes of power and oversight, appealing to concerns across the political spectrum rather than promoting a specific ideological agenda.

Thunderbolts* features a visibly diverse cast reflecting various global backgrounds, and its narrative explores the individual struggles and identities of these characters. The film incorporates DEI themes through its diverse character origins and their personal journeys, rather than through explicit recasting of traditional roles or direct critique of traditional identities.

Thunderbolts* does not contain explicit LGBTQ+ characters or storylines within its narrative. While the film's themes and real-world advocacy by its stars have fostered significant online discussion and hope for future representation, the movie itself stops short of overt LGBTQ+ portrayal, leading to a net N/A impact based on the film's content.

The film features Yelena Belova, a highly skilled combatant and team leader. Her role as a central figure in a combat-oriented team strongly indicates she will engage in and win close-quarters physical confrontations against male opponents, showcasing her martial arts proficiency.
