What is the Plot of Minecraft Movie?
Welcome to the world of Minecraft, where creativity doesn’t just help you craft, it’s essential to one’s survival! Four misfits—Garrett “The Garbage Man” Garrison (Momoa), Henry (Hansen), Natalie (Myers) and Dawn (Brooks)—find themselves struggling with ordinary problems when they are suddenly pulled through a mysterious portal into the Overworld: a bizarre, cubic wonderland that thrives on imagination. To get back home, they’ll have to master this world (and protect it from evil things like Piglins and Zombies, too) while embarking on a magical quest with an unexpected, expert crafter, Steve (Black). Together, their adventure will challenge all five to be bold and to reconnect with the qualities that make each of them uniquely creative…the very skills they need to thrive back in the real world.
The director’s creative team behind the camera includes BAFTA-nominated director of photography Enrique Chediak, Oscar-winning production designer Grant Major, editor James Thomas, Oscar-winning VFX supervisor Dan Lemmon, and costume designer Amanda Neale. The casting is by Rachel Tenner. The music supervisors are Gabe Hilfer and Karyn Rachtman, and the music is by Mark Mothersbaugh.
Produced by Roy Lee, Jon Berg, Mary Parent, Cale Boyter, Jason Momoa, Jill Messick, Torfi Frans Olafsson, and Vu Bui, while Todd Hallowell, Kayleen Walters, Brian Mendoza, Jonathan Spaihts, Pete Chiappetta, Andrew Lary, and Anthony Tittanegro served as executive producers.
Minecraft Movie will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures and by Legendary East in China. It is set to be released only in theaters and IMAX in North America on April 4, 2025, and internationally beginning April 2, 2025.
