Reviews for A Minecraft Movie were a bit mid, as PC Gamer's resident movie pro Chris Livingston put it, and that 47% critics consensus tells no lies. But the people loved it, and there was never any real question that it would get a sequel once that record-setting opening weekend hit. In fact, it was just a week later that Warner Bros Pictures co-chairman and CEO Mike De Luca confirmed that a deal was being done.
Well, now it's official, and not only that, we've got a date too: A Minecraft Movie 2, or whatever it ends up being called, is set to hit screens on July 23, 2027.
