Minecraft movie leak: Jack Black rumored as Steve

Jul 19, 2024 12:17 PM

The highly anticipated Minecraft movie has reportedly leaked images that show Jack Black portraying the character Steve. The leak, said to have surfaced on 4chan and further reported by Eurogamer, also included visuals of a Creeper, a cuboid bee, and a cross-eyed pink sheep. According to these leaks, the plot centers around Steve being captured by a villain named Malgosha, prompting a rescue mission by four new visitors to the Minecraft world. These images were removed from Twitter following a copyright claim, suggesting their authenticity. Jack Black, familiar to gamers from his role as Bowser in the Super Mario Bros. Movie, teased his involvement in the Minecraft film earlier this year. The star-studded cast may also feature Emma Myers, Danielle Brooks, Sebastian Eugene Hansen, Jason Momoa, and Jennifer Coolidge. Slated for release on April 4, 2025, this movie comes amid criticism of Black's handling of Tenacious D's world tour cancellation.

Who will play Steve in the Minecraft movie?

Jack Black is reportedly set to play Steve in the Minecraft movie, as evidenced by leaked images that have surfaced online and a teaser video he posted himself.

Minecraft is a sandbox video game developed by Mojang Studios. It allows players to build and explore virtual worlds made up of textured cubes. Initially released in 2011, it has become one of the best-selling video games of all time with over 200 million copies sold. Its simple yet engaging mechanics have inspired a generation of gamers to create complex structures and entire virtual worlds. The upcoming movie aims to bring this creative spirit to the big screen, adding narrative depth to the beloved franchise. Jack Black's portrayal of Steve is highly anticipated given his previous successes in video game adaptations and comedic roles.
