Contemporary Western is a subgenre of the Western genre, in various media, that includes contemporary settings and uses Old West themes, archetypes, and motifs. These may include a rebellious antihero, open plains and desert landscapes, and gunfights, among others. This sub-genre includes the post-Western, neo-Western, and urban Western genres that include "the cowboy cult" in a modern setting that involves the audience's feelings and understanding of Western movies. A neo-Western can be said to use Western themes set in the present day. According to Stephen Teo in Eastern Westerns: Film and Genre Outside and Inside Hollywood, there is little difference between the neo-Western and post-Western, and the terms may often be used interchangeably.
