Warner Bros. has released a new trailer for A Minecraft Movie, featuring a live-action portrayal of the game's Villagers. The fan response has been largely negative, with many criticizing the design as "cursed" and expressing confusion over the realism applied to the blocky characters. The trailer will debut in full during the 2025 NBA All-Star Game. Fans have noted a significant contrast between the live-action characters and the animated world, leading to backlash since the movie's announcement in September. The director and producer have acknowledged the mixed reactions and are prepared to address community concerns.
