‘A Minecraft Movie’ Breaks Records as 2025’s Top-Grossing Film

The video game adaptation continues its box office dominance with a $500 million global haul and strong second-weekend performance.

‘A Minecraft Movie’ has become the highest-grossing film of 2025 domestically, surpassing $280 million in the U.S. within two weekends.
The film earned $82 million in its second weekend, a strong showing despite a 50% drop from its $163 million record-breaking debut.
Globally, the movie has reached $500 million in earnings, positioning it as a contender to join the $1 billion club in the coming weeks.
Warner Bros.’ success with the adaptation has revitalized the studio’s market position after earlier struggles this year.
Competing titles like ‘The King of Kings,’ an animated biblical film, and new releases such as ‘The Amateur’ and ‘Warfare,’ have performed well but remain far behind ‘Minecraft’ at the box office.
