* SaltAndPepper: Inverted with Sabina and Jane: Jane is the uptight one, while Sabina is more relaxed.
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
trope retooled to be about colorism in-universe


* ButNotTooBlack: Two of the three Angels (Jane, then eventually Elena) are now women of color. However, both have more Caucasian features and fairly light skin (the actresses were biracial). {{Zigzagged}} though in that their first Bosley is played by Beninese actor Creator/DjimonHounsou.

But in the present, Sabina tells Elena that she was a poor and homeless girl before Charlie recruited her. It's possible that [[RichesToRags both might have been true, to some extent]].

* DumbBlonde: Sabina invokes this trope as seen in previous installments of the franchise. She's not stupid but she comes across easily distractable and rather goofy. Her athletic abilities, androgynous presentation and tendency to flirt with other women combine this trope with DumbJock.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: A rather strange one, when [[spoiler:Brok]] says, "You hid a person in my Louis XIV ''[cabinet]''? What. Is ''wrong'' with you?"
** A more traditional example is [[spoiler: Fleming]] who is perfectly fine selling Callisto to shady figures who will use it to kill people, but balks when told to pick someone to kill with it.

* FemaleGaze: The film takes full advantage of Kristen Stewart's status as a sex symbol for homosexual women. The first trailer leaned very heavily into this fanservice potential, particularly one rather infamous closeup shot of her butt in tight riding pants that wasn't even used in the final film.
