That is an excellent movie BTW. The stereotypical aspects are subtle and complicated but basically it is our nature to see things through the eyes of our own upbringing and experience, and to recognize only that which confirms our beliefs rather than challenges them. In this case, the jury of hard working, basically honest men with families and responsibilities were inclined to look on a kid from the slums in a very stereotypical way. He would be a bum, troublemaker, etc. - guilty from the start. The tendency toward conformity was another stereotype portrayed by the jurors who wanted to go along with the majority rather than question a lifetime of personal beliefs.
I'll stop there.
In "12 Angry Men," one of the jurors initially holds a stereotype that people from lower socio-economic backgrounds are more likely to be violent and guilty of crime. This stereotype influences his judgment of the defendant in the case.

In "12 Angry Men," the rain symbolizes the tension and pressure building in the jury room as the jurors deliberate the fate of the defendant. It creates an intense atmosphere that mirrors the internal conflicts and struggles experienced by the jurors.
That is a stereotype

The rising action in "12 Angry Men" involves the jury's deliberations as they discuss the evidence and testimony presented in a murder trial. Tensions rise as conflicts and disagreements arise between the jurors, ultimately leading to the climax of the play.
This isn't really explored. 12 Angry Men makes for a better title than 12 Angry People. While making remakes, adding female jurors was explored but dismissed as executives did not want to change the title. Writing in a female might change the group dynamic and require extra work in script writing.
This is a stereotype.
The idea that all gay men love to go shopping is nothing but an outdated stereotype.
In "Twelve Angry Men," if the defendant is proven guilty of the crime he is accused of, he faces a mandatory sentence of death. The stakes are incredibly high, as the jury's decision not only determines his fate but also raises questions about justice, reasonable doubt, and the moral responsibility of each juror. The play emphasizes the gravity of the jury's duty in the legal system.
Well, there really are no leaders in Twelve Angry Men, but those with more 'input' would include Juror #1 (Martin Balsam) the Foreman and Juror #8 (Henry Fonda) who pushes for fellow jury members to consider the possibility the Defendant may not be guilty of the crime.
The most important strength portrayed by the jury in Twelve Angry Men was 'determination' regardless of any justifiable (or unjustifiable) logic each individual attached to the term.The group was determined to complete the deliberations as directed by the Judge in the case.
