In simple terms, “A Minecraft Movie” is the upcoming video game-turned-movie that’s set to premiere in theaters soon. Predictions suggest it might earn around $60 million or more during its initial release in early April across the United States and Canada over the weekend.
The film is set to premiere on April 4th, and the initial domestic box office projection originates from NRG, according to Deadline. It’s important to note that box office predictions can be unpredictable and are prone to variation. Since the premiere is three weeks off, these projections may change as the release date approaches.
As a gaming enthusiast, I can’t help but wonder: If we consider that $60 million figure as the potential earnings of the upcoming video game adaptation, how does it stack up against recent ones? For instance, The Super Mario Bros. Movie in 2023 had an impressive opening weekend in the US/Canada with a whopping $146 million, eventually amassing a domestic total of $574 million and an international one of $786 million, adding up to a grand worldwide total of $1.3 billion. On the other hand, 2023’s Five Nights at Freddy’s made over $80 million during its opening weekend in the US, further earning $137 million in North America and $291 million globally. So, where does our potential video game movie land in this context?
2024’s Sonic the Hedgehog 3 had an impressive start, earning $60.1 million in its debut weekend in the U.S. and Canada. It eventually grossed $236 million domestically and $252 million internationally, totaling a whopping $488 million globally. Conversely, 2022’s Uncharted movie featuring Tom Holland made $44 million in its domestic opening weekend, accumulating $149 million within the U.S. and Canada, and an additional $259 million from international markets, resulting in a worldwide total of $407 million.
In a nutshell, the upcoming Minecraft film boasts an all-star cast that includes Jack Black, Jason Momoa, Danielle Brooks, Emma Myers, and Sebastian Hansen. Notable appearances are also expected from Jennifer Coolidge and Kate McKinnon. The director of this movie is Jared Hess, who has previously worked on Nacho Libre and Napoleon Dynamite.
The highly-anticipated Minecraft film faces significant expectations due to the game’s extraordinary success. Regardless of whether critics praise or criticize the movie, Deadline predicts that the game’s vast fanbase will flock to cinemas to watch it regardless.
In addition to the release of a Minecraft movie in April 2025, another video game movie, Sony’s Until Dawn, will hit theaters on April 25. Furthermore, HBO is set to premiere the second season of The Last of Us during the same month.
