“A Minecraft Movie” injected some much-needed life into the slumbering box office with a record-breaking $157-million domestic opening and $144 million overseas.
The movie, starring Jason Momoa, Jack Black and Jennifer Coolidge, shattered expectations, doubling some pre-weekend estimates. It took the top slot for a video game adaptation, eclipsing “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” launch in 2023, which grossed $146.4 million.
Based on the 2011 video game, the film has delivered a welcome hit for Warner Bros., giving the beleaguered studio the largest domestic opening of the year. It reportedly cost $150 million to make, excluding marketing expenses.
