Primary

Political: Leans RightConfidence: High

The film's narrative centers on an American veteran protecting an innocent child from a violent Mexican cartel at the border, championing individual heroism and self-reliance against external threats, which aligns with right-leaning themes of border security and personal responsibility.

Diversity: LowConfidence: Medium

The movie features a predominantly traditional cast, with the main protagonist being a white male, and characters of color appearing in roles consistent with the story's setting and premise rather than through explicit recasting. The narrative maintains a neutral to positive portrayal of traditional identities and does not center on explicit DEI critiques.

Secondary

LGBTQ: N/AConfidence: High

Gender Swap: NoConfidence: High

The Marksman is an original film with no pre-existing source material, historical figures, or legacy characters. Therefore, no characters could have been established as one gender and then portrayed as another.

Race Swap: NoConfidence: High
