The Jack Black and Jason Momoa blockbuster A Minecraft Movie is set to debut on streaming on Max in June.
Based on the iconic Mojang video game Minecraft, A Minecraft Movie debuted in theaters on April 4. To date, the film has earned $417.8 million domestically and $512.7 million internationally for a worldwide box office tally of $930.5 million against a $150 production budget before prints and advertising, per The Numbers.
In addition to its big box office numbers, A Minecraft Movie spawned a TikTok craze during its theatrical release with the film’s “Chicken Jockey” scene, which at times got out of hand in theaters where fans threw concessions and caused damage.
Rated PG, A Minecraft Movie arrived on digital streaming on May 13 and will be released on 4K, Blu-ray and DVD with bonus features on June 24.
Warner Bros. Discovery announced on Wednesday that A Minecraft Movie will arrive on Max in June, but did not indicate an exact release date. The title was a part of the list of new and catalog titles that Max (soon to be HBO Max) releases monthly. Currently, the June Max calendar only lists A Minecraft Movie as “coming soon.”
Streaming tracker When to Stream is estimating that A Minecraft Movie will arrive on Max on June 20, since that is the only date on the release schedule where a big premiere is not listed. When to Stream is typically accurate with its release date reports, but without Warner Bros.’ announcement or confirmation of the actual date, the estimated date is just that.
Max offers three subscription tiers. Viewers can get a basic tier with ads for $9.99 per month or an ad-free tier for $16.99 per month. A deluxe, ad-free tier with 4K Ultra HD programming is available for $20.99 per month.
What Is ‘A Minecraft Movie’ About?
Per Warner Bros. Discovery’s press release revealing Max’s June 2025 streaming calendar, the official summary for A Minecraft Movie reads, “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 (Jason Momoa), Henry (Sebastian Hansen), Natalie (Emma Myers) and Dawn (Danielle 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 (and protect it from evil things like Piglins and Zombies, too) while embarking on a magical quest with an unexpected, expert crafter, Steve (Jack Black). Together, their adventure will challenge all five to be bold and to reconnect with the qualities that make each of them uniquely creative … the very skills they need to thrive back in the real world.”
A Minecraft Movie is directed by Jared Hess (Napoleon Dynamite) from a screenplay by Chris Bowman & Hubbel Palmer and Neil Widener & Gavin James and Chris Galletta.
Also starring Jennifer Coolidge, A Minecraft Movie is coming to Max in June with a specific release date yet to be announced.
