Remember themed popcorn buckets? Of course you do. Well, there’s more where those came from. The upcoming Minecraft movie is joining the consumer trend with concessions novelties of its own that will be available during its theatrical run.
According to images posted by DiscussingFilm on X / Twitter, the Minecraft movie will feature a TNT box as its popcorn bucket, paired with a chicken jockey drink container. These items are exclusive to the Cinemark chain of theaters in the United States. As for what other theaters are planning to debut for Minecraft fans, we’ll have to wait and see.

These Minecraft-centric novelties are just the latest in an ongoing trend that has been a national mainstay since 2019’s Rise of Skywalker R2-D2 popcorn bucket. The sheer virality of that snack receptacle six-plus years ago set the theater executives aflutter with potential, and a fun — albeit kind of done to death at this point, and quite expensive to boot — modern theatrical tradition was born. If it keeps folks coming out for the theatrical experience, I’m all for it.
A Minecraft Movie is directed by Jared Hess and written by Chris Bowman, Hubbel Palmer, Neil Widener, Gavin James, and Chris Galletta from a story by Bowman, Palmer, and Allison Schroeder. It follows a group of random folks who get sucked into the cubic world of Minecraft, where they must put their trust in a local guy named Steve, played by Jack Black, to help them master the world around them. Jason Momoa, Danielle Brooks, Emma Myers, Jennifer Coolidge, and Sebastian Hansen star alongside Black. The movie arrives in theaters on April 4, 2025.
