Progressive
Primary
The film leans left due to its prominent focus on female empowerment and individual agency within a male-dominated underworld, aligning with progressive values through character representation rather than explicit political commentary.
The film centers on a strong female protagonist, Eve Macarro, who is a ballerina trained as an assassin, prominently featuring themes of female empowerment and agency. The narrative depicts her struggle for vengeance and survival within a male-dominated underworld, making these themes central to the story.
Secondary
The film features Eve Macarro, a highly skilled assassin, who is depicted engaging in and winning physical combat against multiple male adversaries. Her role involves taking on an entire army, showcasing her combat prowess.
Based on current information, 'Ballerina' does not feature explicit LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The film's primary focus is on action, revenge, and the protagonist's personal and political journey within a secretive organization, with no noted LGBTQ+ presence in its narrative elements.
The film features original female characters, Eve Macarro and the Director, in prominent roles. There is no indication that any character was previously established as a different gender in source material, prior adaptations, or historical record.
The film introduces Eve Macarro as a new lead character within the John Wick universe. As she is an original character not previously established with a different race in prior canon, her casting does not constitute a race swap.
