A Minecraft Movie

A Minecraft Movie is a 2025 American adventure comedy film based on the video game Minecraft. It is directed by Jared Hess and written by Chris Bowman, Hubbel Palmer, Neil Widener, Gavin James, and Chris Galletta, from a story by Allison Schroeder, Bowman, and Palmer.[14]

Plans for the film originated in February 2014 when Markus Persson announced that the film was in development at Warner Bros. Pictures. However, the film ultimately did not leave the pre-production phase until April 2022, when it was reported that Jared Hess was set to direct the film and Jason Momoa was attached to star. Further casting was announced between May 2023 and January 2024, with principal photography beginning that month and wrapping in April 2024.

A Minecraft Movie had its premiere held at the Empire Leicester Square in London, England, on March 30, 2025,[15] and was theatrically released in the United States by Warner Bros. Pictures on April 4, 2025.[16]
