The film updates a classic children’s story with a racially diverse voice cast, placing actors of color in central roles. America Ferrera’s mother and the mixed-gender sibling leads help avoid traditional gender stereotypes. However, the story lacks LGBTQ+ characters and individuals with disabilities, limiting its inclusivity. The narrative remains focused on imagination and family adjustment without deeper cultural or political engagement. Overall, the casting reflects contemporary standards, but the absence of queer and disabled representation keeps the diversity score moderate.
