Box Office: ‘Minecraft’ Is Already the Highest-Grossing Domestic Release of 2025; Angel Studios’ ‘King of Kings’ Outdoing ‘The Amateur,’ ‘Drop’


'A Minecraft Movie' is already the biggest release of 2025 after one week, while Angel Studios' 'The King of Kings' beats 'Drop,' 'The Amateur' and 'Warfare.'

Now projecting a drop around 50%, “Minecraft” likely won’t match the superlative holds put up by titles like fellow video game adaptation “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” (a 36% second-weekend fall) or Warner’s other IP breakout “Barbie” (a 42% slide). The film, which features the voice of Oscar Isaac as Jesus Christ and boasts other names like Pierce Brosnan, Mark Hamill, Forest Whitaker, Ben Kingsley, Kenneth Branagh and Uma Thurman, has so-so reviews. The PG-13 Blumhouse production, which teams “White Lotus” breakout Meghann Fahy and “It Ends With Us” star Brandon Sklenar on a first date gone terribly wrong, cost $11 million to produce and will aim to buoy its box office with great reviews.
