End credit scenes are a popular film mechanic, using which the directors or team behind a film leave unique Easter eggs or references that could hint at a sequel or a spinoff. A Minecraft Movie had a rather interesting clip in the end that has left fans scratching their heads at the possibility of a sequel.

In this unique post-credit scene, Steve is seen going back to his old residence and meeting Alex, identified by her signature green shirt from the game. He then proceeds to ask about the chest in the attic and steps inside the house to talk to her.

Alex is the popular second default character in the Minecraft universe and is closely associated with Steve and his adventures. This brief cameo could hint at a spinoff featuring the female protagonist.

It is also worth mentioning that the leaked Ender Dragon concept art from A Minecraft Movie's cancelled version featured a female protagonist who goes on a quest to find the dragon. It could be possible that the team revives this alternate version and finally offers viewers a plot based on the base game's narrative.

Additionally, the chest stored away in the attic seemed like a cliffhanger, since viewers still don't know what's inside it. This could essentially provide the producers and director with yet another opportunity to launch a sequel and pick up where A Minecraft Movie left off.

With the overwhelming success of the live-action adaptation despite negative critic reviews, the team at Mojang Studios may look to bankroll a second film to add to the ever-expanding universe. Additionally, the Netflix series based on Minecraft is set to release soon as well, offering viewers more clarity on what could be the angle if a sequel ever makes it past the ideation stage.
