Jason Momoa stars in “Minecraft” as a feature film

“Napoleon Dynamite” director Jared Hess gets to take the gaming phenomenon to the cinema screen.
New attempt to get that “Minecraft” -based feature film, which has been reported since at least 2014.

The Hollywood Reporter writes that no one less than Jason Momoa is negotiating the lead role. The “Aquaman” and “Dune” star could be the poster name the project needs to move forward. Not only that, Warner Bros. has found a new director in Jared Hess (“Napoleon Dynamite”). The plot is currently unknown.

As you may remember, Hollywood has been trying to get a film adaptation of the well-known game franchise for a long time. Among other things, there has been talk of Shawn Levy (“Night at the Museum”) in the register and Steve Carell in front of the camera. Other directors have come and gone, so it remains to be seen if the studio has finally found the right team to take “Minecraft” to the big screen.

New movie dates for upcoming blockbusters from Warner Bros

The good news in this context is that “Shazam! Fury of the Gods” actually comes earlier. David F. Sandberg’s sequel to the hugely popular “Shazam!” was planned for the summer of 2023, but now we just have to wait until next winter.

A new trailer takes the opportunity to ride the Batman wave with a focus on Gotham City’s dark knights, whose voice is confirmed to be none other than Keanu Reeves. Also starring are John Krasinski as Superman, as well as Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart as the doggies Krypto and Ace.

For “Matrix” star Keanu Reeves, the role is an old dream come true. In 2014, he said in interviews that he has always wanted to play Batman. It is rumored that he was offered the lead role in “Batman Forever” (1995) before Val Kilmer tricked it. Soon, the audience will see (or at least hear) how well he fits in with Bruce Wayne and his masked alter ego.
