The video game with the cult-following among Gen Z and Alpha took over the box office last month. Now the blockbuster film adapted from the game, dubbed A Minecraft Movie, is headed to households everywhere.
From creepers and piglins to villages and the Nether, the film is full of staples from Mojang’s crafting game. But that doesn’t mean you need to have played the game before to see it (although a primer wouldn’t hurt). It stars Jack Black, Jason Momoa, Emma Myers, Danielle Brooks, and Sebastian Hansen and is directed by Jared Hess — the man known for Napoleon Dynamite, the kookiest film of the 2000s. In other words, you know you’re in for a dang good time whether you know anything about Minecraft or not.
Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch A Minecraft Movie at home.
What is A Minecraft Movie about?
A Minecraft Movie follows four misfits (Momoa, Brooks, Myers, and Hansen) as they get sucked into the Overworld of Minecraft, a realm where everything is made of cubes (yes, everything — even the living creatures). While it seems like an imaginative playground, it’s also under siege from a dire threat. To get back home, they’ll have to team up with expert crafter and resident Steve (Black) to keep the Overworld safe.
