Sure, that happens all the time. A lot of new shows just pay lip service to political viewpoints and pick actors seemingly to check corporate boxes. The Rings of Power is a recent example where almost every strong and noble character is either black or a woman or both. It serves no purpose in the story. Watchmen was a rare example where they actually took on racial issues rather than just pay lip service to them.
