Based on one of the highest-selling games of all time, the Minecraft film will be directed by Jared Hess, and it will kick off production in New Zealand by the end of the month. In addition to Brooks as Dawn and Hansen as Henry, this video game adaptation will also star Jason Momoa, while the rest of the cast is yet to be officially announced.

Brooks got her big break with the role of Tasha “Taystee” Jefferson on Orange Is the New Black, and went on to receive a Tony nod and win a Grammy for her work on the Broadway musical The Color Purple. She’ll soon appear in its movie adaptation, in addition to starring in the superhero series Peacemaker.

As for Sebastian Eugene Hansen, the child actor is a relative newcomer in Hollywood. His filmography includes small roles in Destin Daniel Cretton’s Just Mercy alongside Michael B. Jordan and TV shows Mozart in a Jungle and Lisey’s Story.

This eight-part anthology series is set during the first few months of the COVID-19 pandemic and showcases the power of the human spirit in the face of uncertainty and isolation.

The entire project was conceived and executed remotely, but that’s not the only thing that makes it unique. The majority of the cast members took part in previous Netflix shows, such as Orange Is the New Black, When They See Us, and Dead To Me but they were joined on-screen by their real-life family members with whom they spent quarantine with.

Showrunner Weisman Graham felt that casting non-actors was essential for this project to move forward, but they were “thrilled to discover that talent really does breed talent.” In addition to Brooks, Colter, and Jenkins, Social Distance will also star Oscar Nunez, Guillermo Diaz, Asante Blackk, and Lachlan Watson.
