As part of the upcoming film's promotion, A Minecraft Movie's official website posted an exclusive behind-the-scenes or BTS video, showing prominent cast members engaging in intense Minecraft gameplay.

The clip began with Torfi Frans Ólafsson, one of the film's producers, who also serves as the creative director of entertainment at Mojang. He stated that he came up with the idea of a private server for the cast and crew to play together.

The first clip shows Jack Black exploring a unique village and stepping inside a restaurant made by his friend. Armed with a controller, he is seen exploring the world and talking about the structures built inside his world.

This was followed by Emma Myers, who portrays Natalie in A Minecraft Movie. While engrossed in exploring her world, she stated how she had been playing the game ever since it came out. She is seen exploring the world and coming across a sniffer, which she mistakes for a turtle.

The narrative shifts to Jack Black, who said that he wanted to build a house on the highest mountain in the world. He created a long set of stairs that ascend skywards, appropriately calling it "Steve's Stairway to Heaven." He stated the final build took him hours, while showing the mansion he had built from scratch.

Later in the video, Emma Myers is seen raiding cookies from Jack Black and placing a sign that reads "Emma Was Here", referencing the action from Shawshank Redemption, where Ellis Boyd Redding or Red carves up a wooded panel with the iconic lines "Red was here."
