Not really. iPhone 15 Pro is capable of stereoscopic capture. That is a phone that millions will have.

Big budget productions companies (like, you know, Apple) are already shooting with fancy cameras and their 3D pipeline is pretty capable of generating stereoscopy.

Every 3D movie released for 3DTVs is waiting for re-encoding to 4K+. Free money for distribution companies.

Porn companies are the main mover in this domain. VHS, Bluray, and now headsets.

And there are lot of tricks you can use. Like use ML model to estimate depth of any 2D movie.

But real spatial capture and rendering is going to be where the headset will truly shine.
