The new video game adaptation “A Minecraft Movie” premiered with record-breaking global box office numbers. The Warner Bros. production earned $301 million during its opening weekend.
“A Minecraft Movie” has become one of the most successful video game adaptations in history. In its opening weekend alone, the film starring Jack Black and Jason Momoa outperformed the Super Mario debut in the United States.
In the U.S. and Canada, the film grossed $157 million, placing it at the top of the 2025 domestic box office, surpassing “Captain America: Brave New World,” which debuted with $88.8 million.
The results were also impressive internationally. In 68 countries, the film brought in $144 million. Its strong opening has already covered its $150 million production budget.
The expectation now is that “A Minecraft Movie” will surpass the $1.3 billion mark set by “The Super Mario Bros. Movie.”
The Mojang-based game adaptation currently ranks 12th among all-time video game adaptations, overtaking “Five Nights at Freddy’s,” “Assassin’s Creed,” and “Need for Speed.”
In 2025, the Minecraft film trails only “Ne Zha 2,” a Chinese production that earned over $1.8 billion in its home country alone.
Directed by Jared Hess, “A Minecraft Movie” follows a group of four people who join forces with Steve (Jack Black) to defend the Overworld from evil forces.
