In The Lego Movie, the posters that were released with the movie are very different to the usual everyday poster,In the main The Lego Movie Poster the main character Emmet is at the front which is rather normal, he is a male but the male character/'hero' is normally portrayed as strong and fearless but the choice of facial expression that is used in this poster is rather different, he looks scared, normally that doesn't happen, but if you look to the right side of Emmet, wyldestyle is there and she looks more fearless than emmet, she actually looks a bit angry, by first appearance you wonder if she  is the hero of this story, because usually its not a female as the main hero but now it seems to be that  the female and male main characters have switched roles, like emmet is more like the damsel in distress and wyldestyle is the full out hero who saves people and isn't scared of anything, the usual stereotype is that the female is the ones in trouble and the male figure will save him, but the lego Movie producers played around with it and created a whole new thing that even include a few strong women characters in there such as wonder woman and unikitty, of course there are strong male characters there such as batman and green lantern and metal beard but its definitely a mixture of genders.
