Deadline is reporting that Academy Award-nominee Kirsten Dunst has joined the cast of A Minecraft Movie sequel as Alex, one of the primary avatars available to players of the Minecraft video games from Mojang Studios on which the films are based. What makes her casting extra fun is it comes on the heels of her 2025 comments where she expressed she really wanted to be part of the sequel because her kids loved the first one and because she’d like to make a pile of cash. A Minecraft Movie was a global phenomenon in 2025, grossing $961.2 million worldwide on an estimated $150 million production budget, making it the fifth-highest grossing of the year and a major win for Warner Bros, who desperately needed one at the time of its release.
