The Minecraft movie is going to be a bigger cultural event than the Itchy & Scratchy movie.
Minecraft Movie's Size & Game Authenticity Teased By Producer
Minecraft producer Jon Berg teases the epic scale of the upcoming movie and promises that it will be faithful to the original game.
While speaking to Screen Rant on the Ordinary Angels red carpet, Berg teased the scale and faithfulness of the Minecraft movie adaptation. Berg hyped up the film, noting that it had a major studio, all the resources, and two big actors. He promised it will "inspire people" and also stay true to the original game. Check out his statement below:
What To Expect From The Minecraft Movie
Unsurprisingly, Berg doesn't reveal any specific details about the Minecraft movie. Despite setting a release date and making several casting announcements, the movie has kept its plot and characters firmly under wraps. Still, Berg's promise of remaining true to the game is quite interesting. One of the reasons Minecraft is so intriguing is that the game doesn't provide a definite storyline. It's a game that gives players the freedom to build, explore, or survive whatever they can imagine. Since it looks different to everyone, there's not just one story or way to do Minecraft.
Berg's statement raises many questions about what he could mean by the movie being true to the game. Perhaps he means it will potentially reflect the game's spirit, graphics, or limitless story possibilities. Berg also mentioned Jason Momoa and Jack Black, which isn't surprising as they're the two biggest names attached. Their roles are undisclosed, but the producer suggests they will be significant. Wednesday's Emma Myers has also joined the cast in an undisclosed role, while Danielle Brooks plays a character named Dawn, and Sebastian Eugene Hansen plays one named Henry.
Berg also expressed faith in Jared Hess's directing capabilities. The filmmaker certainly has an impressive resume, as he is the director and writer behind major hits such as Napoleon Dynamite. He has also worked with Black before on Nacho Libre. While Hess has primarily focused on comedies, seeing his take on an adventure video game adaptation will be interesting. Ultimately, Berg has high hopes for the Minecraft movie, but it remains to be seen how its faithfulness will take shape and if it can live up to its big vision and cast.
