After the Minecraft film broke all of the field workplace information and grossed 1.3 billion {dollars}, it ought to come as no shock that there is discuss of a sequel, and in response to director, Jared Ness, these talks actually are occurring. One assumes round how a lot cash the subsequent one might make, and hen jockeys.
In an interview with Deadline, the director sat down and spilled the beans on the sequel probably occurring when requested by the film outlet. That is after Ness politely hampered expectations of a Napolean Dynamite sequel thoughts you, so it is not all roses, particularly for outdated people such as you and I.
Ness states, “Oh, man. Properly, it will be a lot enjoyable. We had a lot enjoyable making this film, and it’s such an expansive world within the recreation, and there have been so many issues that we didn’t faucet into that we wished to. I’d have a blast doing the sequel, and it looks as if there’s already speak about it occurring, so I’m tremendous excited. It’ll be a lot enjoyable to return into the world. The followers are simply having such a great time. We teased it ultimately credit, and the followers appear to be going wild for it.”
As Ness states, there’s a lot room for a Minecraft sequel, it being primarily based round such an enormous open world sandbox recreation with a lot historical past behind it. Not solely that however, given the open player-created facet to the sport writers might actually do something they need with it narratively too. Because of how fashionable they’ve confirmed to be, you could possibly simply assume that the characters launched within the movie, like Jack Black as Steve, might make a return. However you could possibly actually open the door to all method of different characters and locales. Herobrine, anybody?
That being mentioned, Ness already pointed on the inclusion of one other character in a sequel, when it does come round. One which was hinted at through the Minecraft film post-credits scene. “The character we teased is Alex, the opposite massively vital character in Minecraft. It’s Steve (Black) and Alex, and in order that’s the one that we are going to be bringing to the desk undoubtedly.”
So there we’ve it, in all probability anticipate one other Minecraft film, and maybe say a prayer for the cinema employees at present cleansing up spilled popcorn and drinks in these future showings.
