"It seems like there's already talk about it happening, so I'm super excited."

SPOILERS FOR A MINECRAFT MOVIE FOLLOW BELOW

If a sequel is made, it could focus on the character Alex, who was teased at the end of the film. Alex would be joined by Jack Black's character, Steve, in a potential sequel, Hess said.

Hess added that Black is the "most genuine artist ever," and he described him as one of the "hardest workers" and one of the "most gracious and compassionate" actors out there.

"Every single person on the crew, he knew all of their names. And there's hundreds of people. His presence on set just elevates everybody; he cares so deeply about people and his passion for life and people is so sincere and real, it comes through in everything that he does," Hess said.

Hess also sung the praises of Jason Momoa, who played Garrett in A Minecraft Movie. Hess said Momoa is "larger than life" and "so stinkin' funny." Describing his partnership with Black in A Minecraft Movie, Hess said, "We just thought it would be so funny if these guys were trying to one-up each other and outdo each other, the whole movie, and finally come together in this epic romance, and people are really having a fun time with it."

A Minecraft Movie is now in theaters, and it'll eventually be released for Blu-ray. For more, be sure to check out GameSpot's preorder guide for A Minecraft Movie's home video release, including a Walmart-exclusive Collector's Crafting Table Edition.
