Primary
The film primarily explores philosophical questions about creation, artificial intelligence, and humanity's place in the universe, presenting a bleak, unresolved narrative that critiques universal human flaws rather than promoting a specific political ideology.
The movie features a visibly diverse cast across gender and race, consistent with the franchise's history of varied crews, without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles. Its narrative primarily focuses on themes of creation and survival horror, and does not explicitly critique or negatively portray traditional identities.
Secondary
The film includes a same-sex married couple, Lope and Hallett, whose relationship is depicted incidentally as part of the crew dynamic. Their identity is neither central to the plot nor a source of mockery or strong affirmation, resulting in a neutral overall portrayal of LGBTQ+ themes.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Alien: Covenant introduces new characters and continues the story of existing ones (David, Dr. Shaw) without altering their established genders. No legacy characters from previous Alien films are recast with a different gender.
Alien: Covenant introduces new characters for its crew and continues the story of characters from Prometheus. No established characters from prior Alien films or source material had their race changed in this installment.
