A Minecraft Movie is releasing on video-on-demand tomorrow, much to the relief of the poor movie theater workers who have dealing with rowdy crowds. Now, at least, if kids throw popcorn in celebration of Chicken Jockey, it will be the parents’ problem.

Directed byNapoleon Dynamitefilmmaker Jared Hess, with a team of five dudes credited with writing the script, (Chris Bowman, Hubbel Palmer, Neil Widener, Gavin James, and Chris Galletta),A Minecraft Movieis based on the popular video game of the same name, launched in 2011 by Mojang Studios. The film tells the story of four human misfits (played by Jason Momoa, Sebastian Hansen, Emma Myers, and Danielle Brooks) who are sucked in the world of the video game, aka a wacky world where everything is built from cubes under the direction of master crafter Steve (played by Jack Black).

The movie was a box office smash hit, earning over $909 million at the worldwide box office so far, which perhaps is why Warner Bros. opted to keep A Minecraft Movie in theaters for over a month, despite the fact that many recent WB titles have been pushed to premium video-on-demand just three weeks after opening in theaters. Now Warner Bros. hopes to earn even more money from the movie with the premium digital release. Read on for all the info you need on how to watch theMinecraftmovie online, and when we expect to see theMinecraftmovie streaming on Max.

When willthe Minecraft movie be streaming on Max?

The Minecraft Movie Max streaming release date on has not yet been announced yet, but we can make an educated guess based on previous releases.Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,for example, was released on PVOD four-and-a-half weeks after opening in theaters, and began streaming on Max a little over three months after it was released in theaters. IfA Minecraft Moviefollows a similar release pattern, you may see the movie streaming on Max around early or mid-July 2025.

But that’s pure speculation. The Warner Bros. home releases have varied by title, and A Minecraft Movie had a long theatrical run than most recent WB movies, so you may have to wait a little longer. In the meantime, you can always watchA Minecraft Moviebybuying or renting the movie online.
