Information

Revealed by Muse on August 12th, 2020, an upcoming live film, based around the latest album, Simulation Theory, is set to be released in select IMAX cinemas on August 17th, 2020 with digital planned on being released on August 21st and a deluxe box-set (to be released on 11th December), featuring a 5.1 DTS Master Audio Blu-Ray, together with an LP, both with audio from the film, paired with a Casette of the film score, which was written by Bellamy himself.

The film will differ to other live films in that it includes a movie-like story, directed once again by Lance Drake based around the live show with Muse Dancers acting out certain scenes. The trailer for the movie can be seen here.

About the concert itself, it was shot at the O² Arena at London, on the 14th and the 15th September 2019.

Several GIFs of extracts could be found before the release. Muse also teased the film with extracts used on Starlight, Uprising and Supermassive Black Hole on Spotify.

Storyline

The movie follows a team of scientists investigating the source of an unknown paranormal anomaly, spreading across the globe.The center of the anomaly is in London, and appears to be at Muses Stage. The story is being narrated through movie clips and songs themselves. Director Lance Drake said that "the goal for Simulation Theory was to capture the scale of the electrifying live show and to expand upon its connection to the DNA of the world we built for the past three years in music videos for Muse. In a strange turn, the film’s alternate reality eerily started to mirror our own."

The film story will also be available in a comic book format, created by Marvel Comics which teamed up with the band. The comic will be available to buy via the deluxe box set, accompanied with Marvel Comics' limited edition poster.
