I think Lord of the Rings fits this. I think Frodo and Aragorn are the two central characters but many other characters get tons of screen time.

I disagree, frodo is absolutely the main character. He has the most pivotal role in the plot, has the most screen time, and much of the other characters actions are in support of him so even when he's off screen they're working on his behalf.

I was going to say the same thing. Frodo could be considered the main character but the other characters get as much screen time as he does. If not more.

I had to check this, and Frodo gets as much as 120 minutes screen time, compared to Sam who is 2nd and get 75 minutes. Most of that skip is from the 1st movie

Aragorn is 3rd with 72 minutes, he has a lot of screentime in 1st and 2nd movie but lacks a lot in the 3rd.
