Jason Momoa will be in steady hands when it comes to the filmmaking team behind "Minecraft," which now includes Jared Hess, who directed "Nacho Libre" and "Napoleon Dynamite" in the early- and mid-2000s. Producing the movie is Mary Parent, whose credits include "Godzilla vs. Kong" and "Dune," along with Roy Lee.
In an homage to the work she performed in developing and shepherding the adaptation before she died in 2018, The Hollywood Reporter revealed that producer Jill Messick would receive a posthumous mention in the movie's credits. Mojang Studios, which developed and oversaw the entire gaming franchise, will also produce, with Vu Bui and Lydia Winters joining Parent and Lee.
No further details have been revealed regarding the film's plot, its relation to the games, or any other actors. But with Warner Bros. setting a firm release date and a famous actor signed to star, the production seems to finally be moving forward.
