* ''A Minecraft Movie'' was briefly shelved during its development.<ref>https://zerply.com/r/29FegFpw/minecraft-villager</ref>
* On Twitter/X, Jeb teased that the piglins in the movie survive in the Overworld in the same way as the {{MCL|piglin}}s from ''[[Minecraft Legends]]''; by using [[nether wart]].<ref>{{Tweet|jeb_|1833656219795681736|A movie teaser note: In Minecraft Legends the piglins used netherwart to survive the overworld...|September 10, 2024}}</ref>
* Jared Hess's reasoning of calling it "A Minecraft Movie" as opposed to "The Minecraft Movie" was that the game doesn't have a definitive way to play. There are an overwhelming amount of stories that can be told in ''Minecraft'', and he states that is simply one of those stories.{{Citation needed}}
* Twitch streamer ''Valkyrae'' was supposed to have a cameo alongside the rest of the YouTubers. However, she left the set after making public criticisms on Jason Momoa's behavior on set.{{Citation needed}}
 
* In the film, a snippet of "Minecraft" by [[C418]], and "[[Pigstep]]" by [[Lena Raine]] can be heard.
* When a waiter asks {{AMCM|Marlene}} if she and Nitwit are "finished", Marlene responds, "''No, I think he's Swedish''". This is a reference to the game's studio originating and situated in Sweden.
* ''Jack Black'' was initially suppose to play a talking pig in the movie, with ''Jason Momoa supposedly'' being cast as [[Steve]].{{Citation needed}}
* The movie planned to have "DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love" by ''Usher'' playing in the credits, possibly as a reference to the Minecraft parody "Revenge" by [[CaptainSparklez]] and ''TryHardNinja''. However, it was changed.{{Citation needed}}
* During the Midport Village introduction scene, a {{AMCM|pig}} is seen wearing a crown, which Steve states is a "legend". This is a tribute to late YouTuber [[Technoblade]], who passed away from his battle with sarcoma cancer mid-2022.
** The pig was not shown in the exclusive clip from [[Minecraft LIVE – March 2025|Minecraft Live March 2025]], supposedly to keep it a surprise.
** In a later interview, it was revealed that ''Sebastian Eugene Hansen'' suggested the idea to reference Technoblade.{{Citation needed}}
* During the Enderman nightmare scene, Steve is shown with white eyes. This is a reference to [[Herobrine]].
** According to Torfi Francs Olafsson on his Twitter/X account, who worked on this movie, the Herobrine reference was completely unintentional.<ref>{{Tweet|torfi_F_Olafss|1908910433018491319|It’s super strange that all of their eyes were supposed to be purple but when it was rendered one of the characters eyes kept coming out white in the final rendered frames so we wound up keeping it like that, because the VFX studio ran out of time.|April 6, 2025}}</ref>
