Abstract

Since the end of 2021, the concept of “metaverse” has received widespread attention in academic field. Movie sector has long been exploring it prospectively and presenting it innovatively, resulting in the production of metaverse-themed movies. This type of movie has practical significance for the future metaverse thesis. “Character” is an important narrative sign of film composition. This paper starts with several meta-cosmic films, divides the types of characters in meta-cosmic films according to Foucault's theory of spatial power, and analyses their prototype indexes and formation reasons from the constitutive factors of the power relationship, thus explores the power relationship of various types of characters in the metaverse-themed films.
