'A Minecraft Movie' Eyes $130 Million Opening Weekend Box Office

Adapted from Mojang Studios' 2011 game of the same name, "Minecraft" directed by Jared Hess, director of "Napoleon Dynamite", starring Jack Black, Jason Momoa, and has a strong box office performance.

According to the "Deadline", the North American box office is expected to exceed $130 million on the weekend of the film's premiere, far exceeding the previous expectations of $65 million to $100 million. The box office reached $55 million on Friday, of which the box office was as high as $10.5 million on Thursday, and it was released in 4,265 North American theaters.

The cost of the video production (excluding publicity) is US$150 million. Jack Black plays the game's protagonist Steve, and Jason Momoa plays the 80s down-and-out game champion Garrett. Garrett and his companions (Sebastian Hansen, Emma Myers and Danielle Brooks) are taken by the mysterious portal to the block-filled alien world—the main world, where people can build anything they can imagine. However, Steve is imprisoned by the evil pig-ling leader and needs Garrett's help to stop their plans. The film also invited Jennifer Curridge, Jermaine Clement, Rachel House and Matt Berry to speak.
