A set of three films that collectively form a complete narrative arc.
Trilogies often follow a three-act paradigm: introduction, escalation/confrontation and resolution. This structure lends itself to cohesive character arcs and thematic development.
Classic trilogies include The Godfather (1972–90) and Back to the Future (1985–90). More recently, The Hunger Games and The Lord of the Rings have showcased sprawling epic scope.
Studios may release trilogies consecutively or over years, balancing audience anticipation with production demands.
Trilogies allow deep immersion in story worlds, fostering fan communities and expanded lore through books, games and spin-off media.
