A Minecraft Movie
Courtesy of Warner Bros.A Minecraft Movie finally arrived in theaters on April 4. If you’re planning to watch the star-studded adventure film based on the beloved video game series, you may be wondering whether it includes a mid- or end-credits scene that hints at a possible sequel.
Inspired by the popular sandbox video game, A Minecraft Movie follows four misfits—Henry (Sebastian Eugene-Hansen), Natalie (Emma Myers), former gaming champ Garrett “The Garbage Man” Garrison (Jason Momoa), and Dawn (Danielle Brooks)—who are suddenly pulled into the cubic world of Minecraft. To get back home, they must embark on a magical adventure with expert crafter, Steve (Jack Black), and battle zombies, pigs, and endermen.
“A mysterious portal pulls four misfits into the Overworld, a bizarre, cubic wonderland that thrives on imagination,” according to the synopsis. “To get back home, they’ll have to master the terrain while embarking on a magical quest with an unexpected crafter named Steve.”
The movie is projected to earn between $70 million and $80 million in its opening weekend, with some estimates reaching as high as $90 million, according to Variety. A Minecraft Movie has already brought in $10.55 million from Thursday previews, marking a strong box office debut for Warner Bros. and a much-needed win following disappointing performances from The Alto Knights and Mickey 17.

Courtesy of Warner Bros.Yes, A Minecraft Movie includes both a mid-credits and a post-credits scene. In fact, there are two bonus scenes for viewers to enjoy after the main story wraps up.
The first scene appears shortly after the credits begin and ties into a recurring gag from the film. The second plays at the very end, so it’s worth staying through the entire credits to see it.

Courtesy of Warner Bros.The first mid-credits scene picks up the unexpected love story between Chuglas’ school vice principal, Marlene (Jennifer Coolidge), and her new Villager boyfriend. While Nitwit had previously only spoken in Villager grunts, the scene reveals he’s learned to speak human, and he uses his new skill to confess his love. Their love has “transcended the barriers of conventional speech,” he says, explaining that he can now speak human, and Marlene has learned to understand Villager. Nitwit then proposes, and Marlene says yes!
Meanwhile, in the end-credits scene, Steve returns to the real world and visits the house he abandoned. The new owner welcomes him inside, and though her face is never shown, she introduces herself as Alex—making her second default Minecraft player skin to appear in the film. Her arrival means she’ll likely have a role to play in a potential A Minecraft Movie sequel, along with the mysterious chest tucked away in her attic.
