Center
Primary
While the film features a critique of corporate greed through a predatory bank, its central solution and dominant themes emphasize apolitical values such as imagination, family, and individual resilience, rather than advocating for systemic political or economic change.
The movie features some visible diversity in its cast, including a prominent Hispanic actor in a new, original role. However, it does not involve explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white characters. The narrative maintains a traditional, whimsical tone, without critiquing traditional identities or making explicit DEI themes central to its story.
Secondary
Mary Poppins Returns does not include any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The film's narrative is centered on a traditional family structure and magical elements, with no representation of queer identity or experiences.
The film is a musical fantasy and does not feature any scenes of direct physical combat. Female characters, including Mary Poppins, do not engage in or win close-quarters physical fights against male opponents.
The film introduces new characters and features returning legacy characters who retain their original genders. No established character from the source material or previous installments was portrayed as a different gender.
All returning legacy characters in Mary Poppins Returns maintain the same race as their established portrayals in the original film and source material. New characters introduced are not considered race swaps.
