A new trailer for A Minecraft movie is here - and it’s even cuter and quirkier than the first.

In the brief clip, which can be viewed below, we get a bit of Steve’s (Jack Black) origin story, which includes the incredible sentence, “As a child, I yearned for the mines.” Steve ends up leading a ragtag group of heroes (Danielle Brooks, Emma Myers, Sebastian Eugene Hansen, and Jason Momoa in a rather stylish pink leather jacket) through the Overworld, which is filled with wolves, skeletons who shoot arrows, and is, of course, made up entirely of blocks.

Per the official synopsis, A Minecraft Movie follows a group of misfits who find themselves struggling with ordinary problems when they are suddenly pulled through a mysterious portal into the Overworld: a bizarre, cubic wonderland that thrives on imagination. To get back home, they must embark on a magical quest with an unexpected, expert crafter named Steve.

The cast includesSaturday Night Live alum Kate McKinnon, Jemaine Clement(What We Do in the Shadows), Matt Berry (What We Do in the Shadows), and Jennifer Coolidge (The White Lotus).
