Valkyrae disclosed that her appearance in the Minecraft film had been removed, leading fans to ponder about her earlier remarks concerning the treatment of Jason Momoa’s crew.

A recording of influencer Rachell “Valkyrae” Hofstetter discussing the alleged mistreatment of Jason Momoa from last year reappeared a few days following the release of Minecraft: The Movie in cinemas. After it once more became popular, Valkyrae spoke about this matter during her live stream, also mentioning that her part was removed from the film.

Jason Momoa allegedly mistreated crew members on set

In September 2024, Valkyrae spoke about her brief appearance in the Minecraft Movie that she filmed in New Zealand. She shared, “I observed Jason Momoa behaving harshly towards some of the team members, and it was rather disheartening.” She added, “Following a particularly intense scene and an emotional moment, perhaps he was still immersed in his character; however, his actions towards some crew members took me by surprise.

On the stream, she explained that Jason Momoa appeared upset with the team because they weren’t executing something correctly. The Twitch streamer shared that this incident happened during scene setup, and Momoa was visibly angry, expressing his frustration loudly. She felt that it wasn’t a positive work environment and admitted that she wouldn’t be comfortable working under those conditions.

In my gaming days, that video sure garnered quite the buzz. Some folks even took aim at content creators, implying they’re out of touch with the ‘real world’ and its pressures. YouTuber Jay Swingler was among them, taking Valkyrae to task for her comments. He suggested she wouldn’t last a minute in a place where everyday life involves facing tough challenges and stressful conditions.

Valkyrae preferred “not to be sued” for a 30-second cameo in the Minecraft movie

A global cinema release of a Minecraft film took place on April 4, generating a record-breaking domestic opening weekend earnings of $157 million for video game movies – a feat never accomplished before. With an initial budget of $150 million, the movie attracted substantial audiences to theaters. Following the reemergence of an old clip, Valkyrae discussed the matter during a live broadcast.

As a gamer speaking about myself, I kicked things off by mentioning that I wouldn’t delve too deeply into it. However, similar to other creators who graced our screens, I found myself with a brief appearance in the movie – just 30 seconds long. To be honest, I’d rather not have 30 seconds than end up in a legal pickle. This implies that, following the viral sensation of the previous clip, I had my appearance trimmed down to steer clear of any potential legal issues.

As reported by the Twitch streamer, she viewed her 10-day journey in New Zealand as an outstanding adventure. She further stated that although things could have taken a turn for the worse, they didn’t, and none of it was attributable to Minecraft. This implies that her departure wasn’t instigated by the film production team. Some spectators have been hypothesizing about potential Jason Momoa involvement following the viral clip concerning the alleged mistreatment online.

“The movie did not s*ck, it was good!”

After numerous individuals shared their opinion that the film wasn’t great, Valkyrae chuckled. Despite this, the streamer maintained that the movie was excellent and packed with interesting Easter eggs. She playfully accused her chat of trolling to boost her spirits and referred to it as a “charming Minecraft-themed flick.
