A Minecraft Movie draws inspiration from the immensely popular video game, set in a world constructed entirely of square-shaped blocks known as the Overworld. The film stars Jack Black as Steve, a mining enthusiast who is unexpectedly transported into the Overworld after discovering a mysterious glowing block. He is soon joined by four companions: Jason Momoa as Garrett ‘The Garbage Man’ Garrison, Danielle Brooks as Dawn, Emma Myers as Natalie, and Sebastian Hansen as Henry.
The film’s synopsis teases an adventurous quest: “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.”
In a recent promotional move, Jack Black shared his original song, “I Feel Alive,” from the film’s soundtrack. The uplifting rock track was released by WaterTower Music, a division of Warner Bros., along with an official lyric video on YouTube on March 20.
