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.
