After the runaway success of Netflix and Tim Burton’s Addams Family stand-alone series Wednesday starring Jenna Ortega, the streamer renewed it for second season in January 2023. That decision came less than three months after the eight-episode Season 1 premiered, eventually becoming the most-watched original series ever on the streamer ever with more than 252 million views to date, far surpassing Stranger Things‘ Season 4, Dahmer and Season 1 of Bridgerton on the all-time list.

Season 1 ending up scoring 12 Emmy nominations, including for Ortega in Lead Actress in a Comedy Series, becoming just the third Latina to ever be nominated in a leading actress category. The series won four Emmys, though Ortega lost out to Abbott Elementary‘s Quinta Brunson on Emmy night.

We’ve got our first peek at Wednesday Season 2 that hints at the fun to expect when the dark comedy returns!

One of the biggest hits of 2022, Wednesday was a dream combination: Director Tim Burton taking on The Addams Family. Jenna Ortega played the title role of Wednesday Addams, the budding sociopath who, after a wild “prank” at her school, is sent to Westmoreland Academy, home to various supernatural beings.

As she navigates the school and a love triangle she could care less about, Wednesday starts investigating a series of murders leading to a dark conspiracy. The show was a huge critical hit with Ortega breaking out into stardom with moments like the now iconic dance number. Obviously, a second season was ordered, although it was delayed due to the 2023 Hollywood strikes and Ortega’s now busier schedule.

Jason Momoa gained global recognition for his role as Khal Drogo in Game of Thrones, despite previously starring in popular series like Baywatch Hawaii and Stargate Atlantis.

Jason Momoa rose to global fame in ‘Game of Thrones’ as Khal Drogo, even though the actor took part in several hit series such as ‘Baywatch Hawaii’ and ‘Stargate Atlantis.’ Though his character’s time on the show was short (appearing mostly in the first season), his powerful portrayal of Drogo left a lasting impact and the doors of Hollywood opened.

Besides ‘Game of Thrones,’ Momoa is most famous for starring in ‘Aquaman’ in the ill-fated Dceu, and some recent reports state that he might return as Lobo in the newly formed Dcu.

Video Game adaptations are rising up in popularity again and WB decided to jump on the opportunity and make ‘A Minecraft Movie’ based on the popular game released back in 2011.

The trailer for Warner Bros. Pictures’ A Minecraft Movie was dropped recently and it’s safe to say that the community found the entire project embarrassing. The budget for the film is reportedly $200 million, and fans believe that Warner Bros. Pictures should save that money and invest it into smaller studios who are talented enough to create a movie based on the franchise.

One such example is Element Animation, a studio from England, who have created various Minecraft animation videos. There are plenty of creative animated videos out there that show how diehard fans of the franchise would make their own version of the Minecraft movie. Industry giants should definitely acknowledge these small creators instead of chasing another video game movie that feels like cashgrab.

Fans Believe That Warner Bros. Should Use Minecraft Movie’s Budget To Fund...

"Minecraft" is, without exaggeration, the best-selling game in the history of video games. It is so wildly popular that it was an inevitability that Hollywood would one day come calling. That day has finally come: "A Minecraft Movie" is hitting theaters in 2025. We recently got a look at the first trailer for the film, which is a live-action interpretation of the wildly popular sandbox game, and to say that the internet was vocal in sharing thoughts on the trailer would be an understatement. Well, now someone has taken it upon themselves to show us what could have been, by giving that trailer the animated treatment.

Twitter user Alumio recently uploaded an animated version of the very same trailer that Warner Bros. released last week. Same voices. Same shots. Same everything else, only animated instead of live-action. As of this writing, the animated version of the trailer has 10.7 million viewers and nearly 300,000 likes.

Rob McElhenney has garnered acclaim for portraying Mac in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, which gained a cult following. However, he too, has faced a few unexpected ups and downs in his career. If one would remember, he made a short cameo in Game of Thrones.

The new A Minecraft Movie trailer is out and fans cannot stop dissing on it. The film which stars Jack Black, Jason Momoa, and Emma Myers among others, received flack for its CGI. Many have criticized the VFX, calling it outdated, and have spoken out against the design of the film.

However, one of the biggest criticisms the teaser received was Jack Black’s appearance as Steve. Many pointed out that he looked nothing like the beloved character and that they just asked him to put on a blue shirt and be himself. Black, however, has previously claimed to have extensively prepared himself for the role by playing the game for months.

Video game movies with a prominent storyline don’t often transfer to the big screen in a way that can live up to its source material. The movie Borderlands is a recent example. However, with a game like Minecraft, in which the whole thing is a sandbox of which the player can make anything they want, the possibilities can be endless for how a movie adapts the property. Get a peek at how things unfold in the new trailer for A Minecraft Movie.

From Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures and starring Jason Momoa and Jack Black, A Minecraft Movie, directed by Jared Hess, is the first-ever big-screen, live-action adaptation of Minecraft, the best-selling video game of all time. The film also stars Emma Myers (Wednesday), Oscar nominee Danielle Brooks (The Color Purple), Sebastian Eugene Hansen, with Jennifer Coolidge.

Jason Momoa and Jack Black lead the pack in Warner Bros’ long-awaited video game adaptation. Take a look at the first A Minecraft Movie trailer below.

We’ve known for a while now that Warner Bros is making a movie based on the incredibly popular game franchise Minecraft. As of 2023, Minecraft is the best-selling video game of all time, so there’s a lot riding on the film’s cubic shoulders. No one quite knew how the studio would make the so-called sandbox game work in narrative form, but we’ve now got our very first trailer to give us some more clues.

Take a look at the first A Minecraft Movie trailer.

As you can see, the film stars Jason Momoa, Jack Black, Danielle Brooks as well as Sebastian Eugene Hansen and Emma Myers. Jennifer Coolidge is also involved, but there’s no sign of her in the trailer.

Video game movies can be seriously big business these days. In 2023, The Super Mario Bros Movie was second only to Barbie in the global box office stakes ($1.36 million), while this Christmas brings the much-anticipated threequel Sonic The Hedgehog 3 – there’s a sense, all round, that Hollywood is proving more adept at bringing what gamers love about these worlds to the big screen. Next up? Make way for A Minecraft Movie, which is… well, a Minecraft movie, aiming to take the lo-fi, blocky sandbox smash hit and turn it into something cinematic. Here’s your first look at the trailer.

Even just from this first teaser, there’s a sense of the approach being taken here – a somewhat Jumanji-esque real-people-in-gaming-world narrative, while the evocation of the Minecraft world feels akin to The Mario Bros Movie. And like Mario and Sonic, there are starry cast members to anchor it all – namely,...

Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures unveiled the first teaser trailer for the “Minecraft” movie on Wednesday, offering a peek at the highly anticipated video game adaptation. The live-action cast includes Jason Momoa, Jack Black, Danielle Brooks, Sebastian Eugene Hansen and Emma Myers, but it’s likely the animated “Minecraft” figures that fans of the game are most excited to see in action.

The story follows four misfits — Garrett “The Garbage Man” Garrison (Momoa), Henry (Hansen), Natalie (Myers) and Dawn (Brooks) — who find themselves pulled through a mysterious portal into the Overworld: a bizarre, cubic wonderland that thrives on imagination. Per the official synopsis, “To get back home, they’ll have to master this world while embarking on a magical quest with an unexpected, expert crafter, Steve (Black). Together, their adventure will challenge all five to be bold and to reconnect with the qualities that make each of them uniquely creative...

"Anything you can dream about here, you can make!" Let's build! Warner Bros has unveiled a teaser trailer for A Minecraft Movie, the long-awaited Minecraft film that has been in the works for a while. Currently set to open in theaters April 2025. From Warner Bros.

Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures have revealed the official teaser trailer and poster for the Minecraft movie, directed by Jared Hess and based on the best-selling video game of all time.

The first-ever live-action adaptation stars Jason Momoa, Jack Black, Emma Myers (Wednesday), Oscar nominee Danielle Brooks (The Color Purple), Sebastian Eugene Hansen, and Jennifer Coolidge.

Welcome to the world of Minecraft, where creativity doesn’t just help you craft; it’s essential to one’s survival! Four misfits—Garrett “The Garbage Man” Garrison (Momoa), Henry (Hansen), Natalie (Myers), and Dawn (Brooks)—find themselves struggling with ordinary problems when they are suddenly pulled through a mysterious portal into the Overworld: a bizarre, cubic wonderland that thrives on imagination.

To get back home, they’ll have to master this world while embarking on a magical quest with an unexpected, expert crafter, Steve (Black).

Together, their adventure will challenge all five...

“Anything you can dream about here, you can make,” says Jack Black in the first trailer for “A Minecraft Movie,” coming to theaters April 4, 2025.

Then, ceremoniously, he proclaims, “I… am Steve,” prompting groans from the rest of the crew, who have been transported into this blocky video game world.

Directed by “Napoleon Dynamite” and “Nacho Libre” filmmaker Jared Hess, “A Minecraft Movie” also stars Jason Momoa, Emma Myers, Danielle Brooks, Sebastian Eugene Hansen and Jennifer Coolidge. Warner Bros. and Legendary are backing the adaptation of one of the bestselling video games in history (it boasts 140 million monthly users).

In the first footage of “A Minecraft Movie,” Black and Momoa meet piglins and creepers as they navigate the ever-changing fantasy universe.

Debuting in 2011, “Minecraft” allows players to use colorful blocks to create 3D worlds. It has also spawned numerous spinoffs, like “Minecraft: Story Mode,” “Minecraft Earth,” “Minecraft Dungeons” and “Minecraft Legends.

The first official trailer for the "Minecraft" movie is here. The new film is based on the wildly popular, visually retro open-world building video game of the same name, and we're hoping it'll be a little less "Super Mario Bros Movie" and a little more "Lego Batman Movie" or "Barbie." So far, there have been promising signs; the film's cast features a variety of in-demand actors, from "Aquaman" star Jason Momoa to "The White Lotus" headliner Jennifer Coolidge to "The Color Purple" standout Danielle Brooks.

Jack Black stars in the film, and though I have no doubt he'll bring the same energy and amazing comedic intensity to the role as he does to everything else he's been in, it's worth noting that the actor is less beloved than usual lately thanks to his choice to temporarily break up Tenacious D over a comment Kyle Gass made.

A Minecraft Movie just dropped its first teaser today, but it might have been better if it had stayed in sandbox mode. You might want to steel yourself a bit before hitting play: visually, this lands somewhere between The Super Mario Bros. Movie and The Emoji Movie. Maybe it's time...
