An unfinished version of “A Minecraft Movie” disclosed online before the start on the big screen of the adaptation of the video game. The screenshots and the images of the fantastic adventure were widely shared on social media platforms this week and were also available on file sharing sites. Images and scenes have unfinished visual effects. Most of the images were quickly deleted by rights holders.
Although the hacked images are a common problem for large versions of films, it is rare to have a leak in online work in this way, which raises questions about how such a first version of the film was accessible, stolen and shared.
The leaks did not seem to attenuate participation, however. Produced by Warner Bros. And Legendary Entertainment, “A Minecraft Movie” promises to be one of the greatest successes of the year. The film, which features Jason Momoa and Jack Black, is about to make its beginnings at more than $ 130 million, which should invigorate the sagging balance sheets. At this rate, “A Minecraft Movie” competes with the beginnings of 146.3 million dollars of “The Super Mario Bros. Movie”, which set a record for the openings of films based on video games.
“A Minecraft Movie” cost $ 150 million to produce. The story follows four unsuitables which are sucked through a portal in a cube world. Officially released in 2011, “Minecraft” has become one of the properties of the most popular video games in the world and has caused several spin -offs, as well as an endless range of goods.
Warner Bros. spokesperson. And Legendary did not immediately comment on the leaks.
