The cast from A Minecraft Movie 2 teamed up to release a video confirming that the sequel now has an official title: A Minecraft Movie Squared.
The group of actors who helped bring Mojang Studios’ popular sandbox game to the big screen – which included Jack Black (Steve), Jason Momoa (Garrett), Danielle Brooks (Dawn) – showed up for the Minecraft Live May 2026 event to take viewers on a trip behind the scenes of the new movie’s set. It’s the most we’ve seen from the film since it was first announced back in October 2025, but more importantly, we now know what to call it while we wait for its 2027 premiere.
Also present for today’s reveal was Kirsten Dunst, who is confirmed to play Alex after previous teases. You can see the A Minecraft Movie Squared title in the image below.
The video game movie’s sequel was the biggest announcent from the A Minecraft Movie Squared portion of the presentation, but it was far from the only thing the cast had pulled back the curtain on. Black and Momoa opened the video with a few quick shots from the film’s set in New Zealand, revealing a first look at how production is going so far.
