Official Trailer 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, blocky 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 film is directed by Jared Hess, known for his work with Jack Black on Nacho Libre, and written by Chris Bowman and Hubbel Palmer.

Minecraft movie will star Jack Black as Steve, Jason Momoa as Garrett “The Garbage Man” Garrison, Emma Myers (Natalie), Danielle Brooks (Dawn) and Sebastian Eugene Hansen (Henry. Natalie brother)

Jennifer Coolidge with Matt Berry, Kate McKinnon, and Jemaine Clement are also cast in undisclosed roles.

The Minecraft movie is scheduled to be theatrically released in the United States on April 4, 2025.

The trailer looks good and that’s a good start, specially if you watch all the reaction videos on Youtube. They have the star power and I just hope the story for the film is well written.

A Minecraft Movie will be in theaters this April 2nd 2025.

Borderlands Is Finally Getting a Film Adaptation

One of the best-selling games to ever hit the markets is finally getting a film adaptation.

The game, originally by game studio Gearbox, is a fast-paced, comedy–laden, FPS game. The game centers around completing missions and obtaining powerful loot, in addition to-exploring Pandora.

While the game has an open-world style due to its RPG mechanics, it presents challenges to producers wanting to adapt it perfectly into the big screen. However, the minds behind the plot for the Borderlands film could be taking liberties with each character’s uniqueness.

Borderlands Movie Poster

Some big names were cast for the film. We’ve all seen Cate Blanchett as Hela in the MCU. This time, she will be taking the role of Lilith. In addition to Blanchett, Jack Black will be voicing the annoying, but entertaining robot Claptrap, Jamie Lee Curtis will play Tannis the scientist and more.

Lilith (Blanchett), an infamous bounty hunter with a mysterious past, reluctantly returns to her home, Pandora, the most chaotic planet in the galaxy. Her mission is to find the missing daughter of Atlas (Ramírez), the universe’s most powerful S.O.B. Lilith forms an unexpected alliance with a ragtag team of misfits – Roland (Hart), a seasoned mercenary on a mission; Tiny Tina (Greenblatt), a feral pre-teen demolitionist; Krieg (Munteanu), Tina’s musclebound protector; Tannis (Curtis), the oddball scientist who’s seen it all; and Claptrap (Black), a wiseass robot. Together, these unlikely heroes must battle an alien species and dangerous bandits to uncover one of Pandora’s most explosive secrets. The fate of the universe could be in their hands – but they’ll be fighting for something more: each other. Based on one of the best-selling videogame franchises of all time, welcome to BORDERLANDS.

Borderlands will premiere this year by late August.
