“A Minecraft Movie” opened to a record-breaking $163 million, which was by far the biggest opening put up by any movie in 2025 up to that point. That $80.6 million is the third-biggest weekend for any movie this year, with Marvel Studios’ “Captain America: Brave New World” ($88.8 million) holding onto the number two spot (for now, anyway).
Looking at the global picture, “Minecraft” has currently amassed $550.5 million worldwide, which is split almost evenly between domestic and international audiences. Against a reported $150 million production budget, it’s already a big success, even if it doesn’t make another dime. It’s also the biggest Hollywood movie of 2025 so far after just two weekends. However, the Chinese animated blockbuster “Ne Zha 2” is still the biggest of the year overall with more than $2 billion to its name.
