Jack Black apparently got very into his role as Steve while shooting the upcoming Minecraft movie, spending his filming breaks playing the game. The movie's director Jared Hess even went as far as joking that Black went "as method as it gets" to play the role.
"I mean, he was in his trailer anytime he had a break, he was just slaying it in the Overworld," Hess told IGN. "Torfi [Frans Olafsson, producer and Minecraft's Sr. Creative Director of Entertainment] put together a special server just for the crew. Jack got obsessed with searching for lapis lazuli, as he calls it. I mean, every day, it was like, I'd pop in there to go over the scene in the morning and he would be dressed as Steve playing the game. It was kind of a surreal thing to behold."
