Create an ultra-realistic cinematic scene in vertical 9:16 format, inspired by ${title-year}.
MAIN SUBJECT: Depict the exact same man shown in the reference photo, preserving 100% facial likeness, bone structure, skin, beard, age, and ethnicity. Do NOT alter his face. Integrate him naturally into the film universe as a canonical character.
COSTUME: Dress the man in an outfit that is 100% faithful to the universe of ${title-year}, consistent with the film’s period, technology, materials, textures, stitching, wear, dirt, and aesthetic identity. Use realistic fabric with PBR materials and visible micro-details.
REQUIRED CAST — 3 TO 5 CANONICAL MAIN CHARACTERS: Include the following characters in the same scene, interacting directly with the main man:
1. ${character-1}
2. ${character-2}
3. ${character-3}
4. ${character-4}
5. ${character-5}
For each character, specify the character’s name, actor, and exact film costume. Characters 4 and 5 are optional. All characters must have 100% faithful likeness to their original actors and canonical costumes; do not invent or caricature them. Show genuine narrative interaction, eye contact, and natural body language among everyone.
SETTING: Recreate the most iconic environment from ${title-year} with extreme fidelity: architecture, props, technology, vehicles, set dressing, practical lighting, weather, official color palette, emotional atmosphere, and art direction identical to the film.
ACTION AND GENRE: The scene should embody the genre of ${title-year}: ${genre}. Show all characters engaged in intense narrative action and in motion, telling a story.
Choose one genre: psychological suspense with silent tension; brutal, choreographed action; dynamic adventure; immersive science fiction; intense emotional drama; dark mystery; cinematic chase; tactical combat; epic exploration; or extreme survival.
CINEMATOGRAPHY: Professional Hollywood composition, rule of thirds, blockbuster framing, realistic depth of field, anamorphic bokeh, natural cinematic motion blur, airborne dust particles, volumetric smoke, realistic reflections, detailed soft shadows, global illumination, and ambient occlusion.
TECHNICAL DETAILS: Ultra-realistic, photorealistic, skin pores, wrinkles and realistic texture, realistic fabric, hyper-detailed materials, 8K, HDR, masterpiece cinema frame, movie still.
CAMERA: ARRI Alexa 65 with a 50 mm anamorphic lens, shallow depth of field, cinematic color grading faithful to ${title-year}, cinematic contrast, practical and volumetric lighting, and subsurface scattering on skin.
NEGATIVE PROMPT: No cartoon, anime, drawing, 3D, plastic CGI, distorted faces, deformities, text, logos, or watermarks.
Vertical 9:16 format.
