Jack Black speaks about his upcoming ‘MINECRAFT’ live-action film: “I don't want to jinx it, but I'm pretty sure I'm getting an Oscar for this one...”

"I think the members of the Academy will appreciate my research"

Jack Black is desperate to carry a surprisingly specific detail over from the Minecraft games to the upcoming movie adaptation, which he's just started filming with Aquaman star Jason Momoa. With production on the movie having only kicked off in New Zealand in January, little is known about the adaptation other than the fact it'll be live-action and Jared Hess, who previously worked with Black on Nacho Libre, is directing. It'll also feature the likes of Barbie's Kate McKinnon, Flight of the Conchords' Jermaine Clement, Wednesday's Emma Myers, The Color Purple's Danielle Brooks, What We Do in the Shadows' Matt Berry, and Jennifer Coolidge.
