Ultra-realistic cinematic portrait of a strikingly handsome {argument name="subject" default="young man in his early 20s"}, inspired by the reference image’s dramatic low-angle composition, dark atmosphere, intense monochrome aesthetic, and high-contrast lighting. He has thick, naturally wavy jet-black hair, slightly wet and swept back, expressive deep-set eyes, strong masculine eyebrows, a straight defined nose, prominent cheekbones, a sharp sculpted jawline, and a full but neatly groomed short beard with realistic individual hairs. Natural skin pores and fine facial texture are clearly visible. He is leaning back slightly with his head tilted upward, eyes gently closed, creating a calm, mysterious, confident and cinematic expression. His hair falls naturally around the sides of his face. He wears a {argument name="outerwear" default="luxurious black textured coat"} with a raised collar, giving him a sophisticated dark-fashion appearance. Use dramatic side lighting that illuminates one side of his face while leaving the other in deep shadow. Strong chiaroscuro, subtle rim lighting around the hair, rich blacks, bright silver highlights and extremely detailed facial contours. The background is almost completely black, heavily blurred, with subtle distant city lights and soft circular bokeh. Add a very subtle {argument name="atmosphere" default="atmospheric haze/smoke"} around him for depth and cinematic mood. Photography: ultra-realistic, high-end editorial photography, cinematic noir, monochrome black-and-white, dramatic chiaroscuro, deep contrast, shallow depth of field, 85mm lens, f/1.4, realistic film grain, natural skin texture, sharp facial details, professional studio lighting, photorealistic, 8K quality. Composition: vertical 4:5 portrait, close-to-medium framing, low camera angle, subject filling most of the frame, cinematic negative space, sophisticated dark luxury aesthetic.
