Progressive
Primary
The film's dominant themes align with progressive values, primarily through its central narrative of resisting colonial exploitation, protecting indigenous lands and people from resource extraction, and empowering marginalized groups against a tyrannical oppressor.
The movie 'Pan' incorporates elements of explicit DEI through the casting of a minority actor in a traditionally white role. However, its narrative does not critically engage with traditional identities or center explicit DEI themes, maintaining a neutral to positive framing of such characters.
Secondary
The film features Tiger Lily, a skilled warrior, who engages in and wins multiple close-quarters physical fights against male pirate opponents using her staff and martial arts.
Tiger Lily, a character canonically depicted as Native American in J.M. Barrie's original works and subsequent adaptations, is portrayed by a white actress, Rooney Mara, in this film.
The film portrays the Christian orphanage and its nuns as oppressive and hypocritical. The nuns are shown to be cruel to the orphans, hoarding food for themselves while the children suffer, without any narrative counterpoint to their negative depiction.
The film 'Pan' does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on Peter's origin story, his adventures in Neverland, and his relationships with Hook and Tiger Lily, none of which include LGBTQ+ representation.
The film "Pan" (2015) is a prequel to the Peter Pan story. All major characters, including Peter Pan, Captain Hook, and Tiger Lily, retain their canonically established genders from the source material. No character's gender was altered from their original portrayal.
