AsA Minecraft Moviecontinues its theatrical run, Warner Bros is sure to continue raking in the cash.
Movies based on video gameshaven’t always performed so well.
Paramount’sSonic the Hedgehogmovies were a game changer, but it wasThe Super Mario Bros Moviethat really turned the tide.
It made $146 million domestically during its opening weekend and managed a record-setting $1.36 billion globally overall.
Now, surprisingly,A Minecraft Moviehas broken that initial domestic opening weekend record.
The 2025 movie made $163 million domestically in its first three days17 million more thanMario.
However,Minecraftdidn’t wholly beat its predecessor.
It may never get the same international numbers as theMariomovie, but there is still some hope.
This would makeA Minecraft Moviethe highest-grossing video game movie of all time.
