A color pattern film for metal shell is provided. The color pattern film for metal shell includes a transparent polymer substrate, a releasing coating layer, a protective layer, an ink layer, and an adhesive layer. The releasing coating layer is on the transparent polymer substrate, the protective layer is on the releasing coating layer, the ink layer is on the protective layer, and the adhesive layer is on the ink layer. The adhesive layer at least includes a base resin which is one of resin systems selected from ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), polyester (PET) resin, and polyolefin resin. The color pattern film for metal shell can be directly pressed and attached onto a metal sheet or coil, and subsequently punched, thus the problems of the prior art that the yield of adhesive wet film coating process is not easily controlled and complex post-processes are still required after molding are addressed.
