But anyhow I'm answering about the choice of male pronouns used in the subtitles in the trailer.
I know it is confusing, they translated it verbatim (which is kinda lazy and sloppy), but they use the masculine form in the german version, too.
The german word "Mensch", which could be translated to person or human being, is masculin, but can be applied to men, women, boys or girls.
French is even worse, when it comes to that, most nouns are masculine, in german it is about 60/40.
And many words have different genders in different languages: in german, the sun is female and the moon male, in latin languages (french, spanish, italian, portugese) it is the other way arround.
Just change it to "her" instead of "him", it makes more sense in that context, should be an improvement.
