Warner Bros has revealed the first trailer for the Minecraft movie, with Jason Momoa popping up and Jack Black introducing himself in epic fashion as the game's iconic main character… with the rather underwhelming name Steve.
If you've just woken up from a deep slumber under a large rock, allow us to explain that Minecraft is a sandbox-style game that blends building and survival to addictive effect.
It's been gathering admirers in droves since its initial launch in 2011.
If you're already a Minecraft fan, we're not gonna miss the opportunity to tell you that we've covered the game quite a lot here at RadioTimes.com. We've got guides to the best Minecraft seeds, all the Minecraft villager jobs, and a whole lot more for you to read.
So, are your eyes ready to witness one of the mostly brightly-coloured and barmy trailers that you're likely to see this year? Alrighty then. Check out the Minecraft movie trailer below!
How about that introduction for Jack Black's Steve, am I right? Joining him and Momoa in the cast are Emma Myers, Danielle Brooks, Sebastian Eugene Hansen and Jennifer Coolidge (the latter of which is a particularly brilliant shout from the casting directors).
The official press release confirms that the Minecraft movie's story will see «four misfits» being «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.
»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."
