The prompt

Render this image as a 2012 to 2026 Marvel Studios or franchise tentpole ensemble film poster, built as a digital composite of multiple stacked hero portraits over a painterly concept-art background. Use the canonical franchise grading palette of warm sodium orange for the foreground figures, cool teal cyan for the background and shadow zones, deep slate black, sky lavender, ember red, and one accent of arc reactor blue or infinity stone purple. Compose with the central hero in commanding foreground hero pose, secondary characters stacked in radial or pyramidal arrangement around them at varying scales, dynamic concept-art backdrop of cityscape, cosmic field, or battle horizon, and an implied lens flare or god ray descending. Render with photographic source figures, heavy soft-light grading layers, painterly digital matte background with ray-traced lighting, particle effects in the atmosphere, bloomed highlights on metallic costume elements, and a subtle film grain unifying the disparate plates. The atmosphere is overwhelming, abundant, checklist driven, treating the poster as the franchise's official roster page for the season. Strictly no on-canvas text, no title lettering, no legible type, no studio marks, no watermark. Preserve the subject, pose, and composition of the source image exactly, change only the medium and rendering. Aspect ratio matches source.

What it is doing

The MCU era poster is the franchise's accounting document. Every hero on the canvas is a line item in the licensing ledger, every cameo is a contract clause made visible, every grading decision is an attempt to make twenty disconnected production schedules look like one continuous universe. The orange-teal grading is not aesthetic preference, it is the cheapest digital tool capable of forcing visual unity onto unrelated source plates. The audience reads it as cinematic, the studio uses it as glue. Any contemporary image rendered in this register inherits the same checklist logic, presence as inventory.
