The most recent Minecraft movie news came when the studio revealed its release date. Warner Bros. officially set the Minecraft release date for April 4, 2025. This was a date Warner Bros. originally set for an untitled film, and it turned out to be for the Minecraft movie — news that was both unexpected and welcome. Warner Bros. continues to move its movie releases around, as it also announced Minecraft star Jason Momoa’s DC movie, Aquaman & The Lost Kingdom will hit theaters on December 20, 2023.
There is also always a chance the Minecraft Movie release date could get moved, but for now, this is the set date. The movie hasn’t started production yet, but it is scheduled to start shooting on August 7, 2023, in New Zealand (via KFTV). This gives the movie two full years to shoot the movie and do all post-production work, which is expected to be extensive with what gamers know about the world of Minecraft, and the fact it is a live-action movie.
