●Valkyrae reveals that she has a cameo in the Minecraft movie.
●While filming this cameo, she says she saw Jason Momoa "mistreat" the crew.
●She says Momoa was "angry, really mad and yelling".
Streamer Valkyrae says that she saw Jason Momoa "mistreat" the crew of the Minecraft movie. She says she saw this was shooting a cameo for the film, during which she alleges to have seen Momoa "yelling" at workers behind the scenes.
As spotted by Insider Gaming, Valkyrae - real name Rachell Marie Hofstetter - revealed this during a stream with fellow content creator JasonTheWeen. Here, she reveals that seeing Momoa on set was her worst celebrity experience, and that she would "not be happy working under these conditions".
"So, Minecraft movie. I have a cameo in the Minecraft movie that's coming out," Valkyrae explains. "I would have to say, Jason Momoa. I just saw him mistreat some of the crew, and it was pretty disappointing. It was a very emotional scene so maybe he was still in character, I don't know. But I was kind of surprised by how he treated some of the crew.
"He was just really mad at them that they weren't doing something right, like setting up like the shot," she continues. "He was just angry, really mad and yelling. So I was like, man, this is not a good work environment. I would not be happy working under these conditions."
The Minecraft Movie Has Faced Issues Since Its Reveal
Momoa's alleged behaviour on set isn't the only issue the Minecraft movie has faced. The first trailer dropped last week and was met with near-universal backlash across the gaming community. From the casting to the visuals, fans seem to think this film is going to miss the mark. The comments on the trailer are overwhelmingly negative too, and it seems like many have already written this off as a miss, not joining the ranks of successful video game adaptations like The Super Mario Bros. Movie and the Sonic series.
In any case, Minecraft is coming to theatres next April. It remains to be seen if it can win back some good will with fans as we see more of the movie.

Who was the r-slur who decided to make a Minecraft movie? People don't like Minecraft for the plot or the tension or any of that stuff, they like it for the atmosphere, relaxation, and infinite possibilities, things that are absolutely contrary to driving 20 minutes to the nearest movie theater, paying 20 dollars, and sitting in a large theater with 20 strangers for 120 minutes. It could have been done as a chill little miniseries with a Primitive Technology type of vibe. But then they couldn't rely on star power to justify a 9 figure budget.
Ironically, as much blame as we dump at the producers and movie execs for movies like this, it seems like they always end up getting fricked over by this... so why do they keep on doing it?

Why hire expensive actors if that's the case? I doubt any children know or care about jack black

Of course. I'm looking at a list of the top movies of 2003 and the amazing thing compared to now is that I've actually heard of most of these! Some of them I've even seen.

But these movies don't even do well anymore. It's a weird situation where the audiences and the executives both hate these movies, but they keep getting made. I think that directors are just tricking producers into financing the terrible movies so they can have a large budget movie in their resume.
