To form a film on magnesium alloy, which has high corrosion resistance, shows a metallic texture and can develop variable colors, by using a method without the use of a hazardous material, and to further provide an adequate plated film which has not only high productivity but also adequate recyclability.

The first aspect is a magnesium alloy member having the film, which includes a base material made from the magnesium alloy, and a plated zinc film and a plated aluminum film thereon sequentially from a base material side, wherein zinc penetrates into the base material side.
