About A Minecraft Movie
A Minecraft Movie is a live-action and animation adventure comedy from Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary, made with Mojang Studios. It was directed by Jared Hess and stars Jason Momoa, Jack Black as Steve, Danielle Brooks, Emma Myers, Sebastian Hansen and Jennifer Coolidge. Four misfits are pulled through a portal into the Overworld, a blocky world where they must learn to build and survive with the help of Steve. It runs 101 minutes and is rated PG.
The film opened in theaters on April 4, 2025, broke records for a video game adaptation on its opening weekend, and earned close to one billion dollars worldwide. Moments like the chicken jockey scene and Jack Black’s songs became huge memes, so the movie is still popular for family movie nights and Minecraft parties.
How to stream A Minecraft Movie in the US
Because it is a Warner Bros. film, HBO Max is its streaming home in the United States. It arrived on June 20, 2025. You need an HBO Max subscription, which is available on its own or as an add-on channel through services such as Amazon Prime Video. Search for the title in the HBO Max app on your TV, phone, console or browser. HBO Max also offers a version of the film with American Sign Language interpretation.
The movie is not included with a regular Amazon Prime membership or with Netflix in the US, so if you see it there, you are being offered a rental, a purchase or an HBO Max add-on.
How to rent or buy it digitally
The movie has been available to buy and rent digitally since May 13, 2025. You can get it from:
- Amazon Prime Video
- Apple TV
- Fandango at Home (formerly Vudu)
- Google Play Movies and YouTube
- Microsoft Store on Xbox and Windows
Renting usually gives you 30 days to start watching and 48 hours to finish once you press play. Buying adds it to your library permanently. Prices vary by store and change with sales, so check a couple of stores before you pay.
DVD, Blu-ray and 4K
Physical copies were released on June 24, 2025 in DVD, Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD editions. Many include a digital code and bonus features such as behind-the-scenes footage. Physical copies are a good option if you want to watch offline, lend it to friends or keep it for a collection.
Where to watch outside the US
- United Kingdom: streaming with Sky Cinema and NOW, plus HBO Max where available; rent or buy on Amazon, Apple TV, Rakuten and Sky Store.
- Other countries: rights vary. Warner Bros. films usually stream on HBO Max where the service exists, and on local partners elsewhere. In some countries, such as Spain, the film has appeared on Netflix.
The quickest way to check is to search the title in a streaming guide app for your country, or search inside each service you already pay for.
Is A Minecraft Movie free anywhere?
No legal free streaming option exists in the US. Sites offering the full movie for free without an account are pirated copies and often carry malware, so avoid them. If you want to watch for less, look for a free trial of a streaming service, borrow a physical copy from your local library, or wait for TV broadcasts on HBO channels.
Is it good for kids?
The film is rated PG for violence, action, some language and crude humor. Most families find it fine for children who already play Minecraft, but very young children may find some of the mobs, such as the piglins and the Nether scenes, a little scary. It is a comedy first, with lots of jokes for adults too.
A Minecraft Movie sequel
Warner Bros. has confirmed a sequel, set for release in theaters on July 23, 2027. Jared Hess returns to direct and co-write the script with Chris Galletta. The cast and story have not been fully announced. The teaser poster showed two crossed pickaxes, which fans read as a hint that another miner will join the adventure. We will update this page as details are confirmed.
