The Minecraft movie is getting developed with the fans in mind.Currently in development, the Minecraft movie will be a live-action adaptation of the popular video game. In the director’s chair is Napoleon Dynamite helmer Jared Hess, and the filmmaker shared a new update on the project in an interview with the Salt Lake Tribune. Hess revealed that the film’s production designer is Grant Major, who worked on the Lord of the Rings trilogy and won an Oscar for The Return of the King. The director went on to explain how he’s learned from other video game adaptations that fans want them to be faithful to the source material, naming the original Sonic the Hedgehog design backlash as one example.Hess is referring to the fan backlash over the original trailer released for the Sonic the Hedgehog movie in 2019. Its design for Sonic was very different from the video game version, resulting in heavy criticism from fans all across social media. Because of the backlash, the film was delayed by three months so Sonic could be redesigned to more closely resemble his video game counterpart. Fans accepted the redesign, making Sonic the Hedgehog a big hit with multiple sequels (and a spinoff series). Other recent video game films, such as The Super Mario Bros. Movie and Five Nights at Freddy’s, have also found big success by staying faithful to the source material.
