Abstract

Under the impetus of the metaverse, metaverse films are emerging as a distinct genre. Metaverse films represent a new cinematic category that establishes a symbiotic relationship between two worlds: the virtual and the real, depicting potential future human existence and reflecting societal contemplations about the future. Since the 21st century, metaverse films have consistently seen a rise in box office revenue, with many in the metaverse film genre already planning sequels, indicating a rapid development trend. The metaverse has transitioned from a mere cinematic theme to a tangible reality, where the future metaverse is both cinematic and real, making the prospects of metaverse film development incalculable. The genre characteristics of metaverse films primarily encompass: a profound convergence of the virtual and real worlds, a strong influence of gaming elements, a theme of reality over virtuality, and a narrative structure featuring grassroots heroes saving the world.
