A Minecraft film sets box office records with worldwide debut

A Minecraft Movie from Warner Bros. has exceeded all expectations and recorded the best start ever for a video game film adaptation. The final figures were more than 12 million dollars above estimates.

With box office takings of 163 million dollars in the USA and 150.7 million dollars in AUsland and a worldwide start of 313.2 million dollars, the film produced by Warner Bros. with the support of Legendary Pictures has set records. It even surpassed the three-day start of Universal Pictures' The Super Mario Bros. Movie with 146.4 million dollars on Easter weekend 2023.

For the box office, the film, which features numerous top-class stars, comes at the best possible time, as the box office in 2025 has experienced a drastic slump in recent weeks.
