A MINECRAFT MOVIE Sequel Is Reportedly Already in the Works

A Minecraft Movie has exploded in theaters with impressive box office numbers that were way above what analyists were predicting. So, it should come as no surprise that a sequel is quietly punching its way through the bedrock of Hollywood development.

In a recent interview with Deadline, Warner Bros. executives Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy dropped a subtle update on the future of the franchise.

When asked if sequels were in the works for A Minecraft Movie and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, De Luca responded with a single, pointed word: “Imminently.” That was followed by a more cautious clarification: “the ink might not be dry on the deals yet.”

So while it’s not officially official, the wheels are in motion to making it happen. The studio is clearly interested, and with A Minecraft Movie proving to be a rare win during a rocky era for Warner Bros., they’re not likely to let this pixelated goldmine slip away.

It’s no secret WB has been hurting lately with theatrical releases like Joker 2 not hitting the way they’d hoped. A Minecraft Movie was a risk… but it was a risk that’s paying off big time. The internet has been eating up moments like the Chicken Jockey scene and the deep-dive references to the game’s lore.

Even the movie’s post-credits scene stirred up speculation, hinting at a possible continuation while winking at longtime fans of the game.

Of course, the sequel is still early in the game. Contracts need to be signed, and talent locked in. But the director has already expressed interest in returning, and with WB execs talking this openly, it feels like it will eventually happen.

A Minecraft Movie was stupid fun and audiences seem to be embracing the bonkers ridiculousness of it.
