Selome Hailu Netflix is developing an animated series based on the wildly popular sandbox video game “Minecraft.” The streamer will produce the project alongside Mojang Studios, the Swedish developer of the game.
Plot details are not yet known, but according to Netflix, the series “will feature an original story with new characters, showing the world of ‘Minecraft’ in a new light.” The series, which will be CG-animated, is in development with WildBrain, the Canadian studio behind animated Netflix projects including “Sonic Prime,” “Ninjago: Dragons Rising” and “Carmen Sandiego.” In 2022, Netflix debuted a revival of WildBrain’s “Johnny Test,” which originally ran on the WB and later on Cartoon Network for six seasons from 2005 to 2014.
The studio has also produced “The Snoopy Show” and “Snoopy in Space” on Apple TV+ and “Fireman Sam” on the UK’s Channel 5. Mojang released “Minecraft” in 2011.
In its signature pixellated style, the game allows players to build 3D worlds out of colorful blocks. More than 140 million people each month play “Minecraft,” which has birthed spinoffs “Minecraft: Story Mode,” “Minecraft Earth,” “Minecraft Dungeons” and “Minecraft Legends.” This isn’t the only narrative “Minecraft” adaptation Mojang has in the works.
