A second *Minecraft* movie is officially happening! Following the first film, Legendary and Warner Bros. have announced a sequel is scheduled to be released in theaters on July 23, 2027.
The first look at the upcoming Minecraft movie—a teaser poster—was shared on the game’s official social media. The post announced the film will arrive in theaters on July 23, 2027, with the simple message, “Building terrain.”
This news comes after the incredibly popular *Minecraft* movie, which came out earlier this year and was a hit with audiences around the world.
The movie was a huge financial success, earning almost $958 million globally and becoming the second highest-grossing film of the year. It made around $424 million in North America and over $533 million internationally from ticket sales.

Jared Hess, the director of the first movie, is back to direct the sequel and will write the screenplay alongside Chris Galletta. Mary Parent, Cale Boyter, Roy Lee, Eric McLeod, Kayleen Walters, Torfi Frans Ólafsson, and Jason Momoa – who was also in the original – are all producing the film.
Despite being a big success in theaters, critics had mixed opinions about *A Minecraft Movie*. It currently has a 48% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 190 reviews. The site described the film as a fun, vibrant playground for Jack Black and Jason Momoa, but noted its story felt surprisingly simple and familiar.
The movie became a huge trend on social media, particularly on TikTok, with people treating trips to the cinema like parties.
The audience, largely teenage boys, erupted in cheers, shouting memorable lines from the movie like “Chicken jockey!” and “Flint and steel!” Videos of fans dancing, throwing popcorn, and even bringing live chickens to the theaters quickly went viral.
The movie gained popularity thanks to the trend, but some cinemas experienced issues because the celebrations became excessive, causing disturbances and requiring staff to step in.
Even though opinions were divided and fans had a strong reaction, *Minecraft* clearly resonated with viewers. Given its impressive box office performance and large online community, it’s understandable that Warner Bros. and Legendary are planning to expand on this achievement.
