Kirsten Dunst is joining the cast of A Minecraft Movie 2, and this comes not long after she said she wanted to be in the movie because her kids enjoyed the first one and she likes money.
Deadline, which confirmed Dunst’s casting, said there is no word yet on the role she will play. In any event, she joins a cast that includes returning cast members like Jack Black, Jason Momoa, Danielle Brooks, Matt Berry, and Jennifer Coolidge.
Jared Hess, who directed A Minecraft Movie, is coming back for the sequel. Dunst has appeared in 90+ films and shows, and earned an Academy Award nomination for The Power of the Dog. A Minecraft Movie 2 will be her first video game movie, but she is no stranger to a blockbuster franchise, of course, as she starred as Mary Jane in the Sam Raimi Spider-Man movies.
It’s exciting to see Kirsten Dunst finally joining the cast of A Minecraft Movie 2! Her enthusiasm for the project adds an interesting layer to the film. Looking forward to seeing how it all comes together!
