Mindhunters

In an attempt to feed my craving for pretty boys acting geeky, I watched Mindhunters. I got to look at Jonny Lee Miller's face for a while. I had to look away from the gruesome death scenes, and I found the fight scenes boring, so the movie as a whole was not for me. But it has one attribute which I thought was vanishingly rare for movies of this type:
From a team consisting of four white men, one white woman, one Hispanic woman, one man in a wheelchair who looks Hispanic though neither the character's nor the actor's name confirms this interpretation, and one Black man, the Black guy makes it to the end! In fact, if the other three white men whose presence on the island is secret until we discover their corpses died first, which is a reasonable assumption since otherwise they would have tried to intervene as soon as the killing started, all six white men who are not the killer died before anyone else. Is this as rare as I have been led to believe?
