My youngest (despite being a terror herself at times ) finds any even mild violence / threat in live action films distressing unfortunately. She doesn't care about cartoons beating each other up but I don't think she fully understands that "real people" aren't actually getting hurt! Eldest has also resisted Superhero stuff mostly thus far, however I did convince her to come to Spider-man Far From Home with a bribe of Skittles and she loved it so there's hope yet . The "it's American High School Kids" (basically her preferred genre of... everything...) element was enough to win her over.
