The film's central conflict revolves around survival in a monster-filled world, and its solution emphasizes practical cooperation and resilience, making its core narrative largely apolitical and focused on universal action-adventure themes.
The movie features a visibly diverse ensemble cast, particularly among the military squad, but its main characters are original or archetypal, avoiding explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. The narrative maintains a neutral to positive framing of traditional identities, with no explicit critique or central DEI themes, focusing instead on action and survival.
The character Handler, who is visually depicted as white in the Monster Hunter: World video game, is portrayed by a Japanese actress in the film adaptation, constituting a race swap.
Monster Hunter does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The film's plot is solely centered on military personnel fighting monstrous creatures, with no narrative elements or character developments related to sexual orientation or gender identity.
The film primarily features Captain Natalie Artemis fighting various monsters, often with firearms or large melee weapons. While she does engage in physical combat with The Hunter, a male character, she is consistently outmatched and defeated by him in their direct confrontations. There are no instances of a female character defeating male opponents in close-quarters physical combat.
The film introduces new, original characters and adapts archetypes from the game series where player characters have customizable genders. No established canonical characters from the Monster Hunter games were portrayed with a different gender in the movie.
