Roblox (known in some countries as The Roblox Movie) is a 2026 American 3D computer-animated science fiction action-adventure comedy-drama film produced by Universal Pictures and Illumination, in association with Roblox Corporation, Lord Miller Productions and Perfect World Pictures, and distributed by Universal. It is based on a gaming platform of the same name. The film is directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, from a screenplay by Derek Connolly, and a story by Robert Smigel. It stars the voices of Oscar Isaac, Chris Evans, Jessica Chastain, Mark Wahlberg, Bill Hader, Ben Schwartz, Steve Carell, David Baszucki, Ryan Reynolds, Jason Sudeikis, Frank Welker, Max Martini and Nick Kroll. This film serves as the first installment in Illumination's Roblox Cinematic Universe.

Roblox was theatrically released on September 1, 2026 in 2D, 3D, RealD 3D, Dolby Cinema, IMAX, IMAX 3D, 4DX, and ScreenX by Universal Pictures, and received universal acclaim from critics, audiences, and the fans of the platform, praising its animation, visuals, voice acting, writing, faithfulness to the source material, character appearances, humor, style, Hans Zimmer and Brian Eno's musical score, and the darker and mature tone compared to Illumination's previous projects, while comparing it favourably to The LEGO Movie and Wreck-It Ralph. It is widely considered one of the greatest and most influential animated movies ever made. With a worldwide gross of $1.57 billion against a budget of $350 million, it became the second highest-grossing film of 2026 and the second highest-grossing animated film of all time. It also broke multiple box-office records, including the biggest worldwide opening weekend for an animated film and the highest-grossing film based on a video game. Roblox won numerous awards, including Best Animated Feature at the 99th Academy Awards, 54th Annie Awards, and 84th Golden Globe Awards. It is the second non-Disney/Pixar film to win the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, as well as the first Illumination film to win that award. Its success formed a multimedia franchise, including a theme park at Universal Destinations & Experiences called Robloxia. A sequel, Roblox 2: The Attack of Julien, was released on July 7, 2029, while a third film is in development.

This film is dedicated to Erik Cassel, co-founder of Roblox, who died on February 11, 2013, respectively.

Synopsis
An ordinary robloxian named Jake was always alone and people like to make fun of him. All of a sudden, when Ellernate starts preparing for an attack, he teams up with other robloxians he met such as Melvin, Jesse, Omar, Chad, Builderman, Donny and Noah to save the Roblox universe from Ellernate who is trying to take over.

Prologue
In 2023, a test footage shows humans going inside Roblox as rthro avatars using VR headsets, but was interrupted by Jake, who is sick and tired of bad video game adaptations, starts telling the audience that Universal must be dense. The gang are then seen going to Universal headquarters, with several video game characters, who are seen going on strike, helping them get there, as they angrily lash out at Lord Farquaad and the rest of Universal and Roblox executives, demanding that their movie must be fully animated and that they should give what the fans and the audience wants. Farquaad rudely refuses to do that, because both the metaverse and live-action films based on video games make more money. Sean furiously threatens to attack Farquaad with his swords if he doesn't turn the gang's movie to be fully animated. With complete fear, Lord Farquaad quickly and promptly accepts their request to make their movie fully animated. Three years later, Jake, the gang, and the rest of video game characters are gathering and sitting down at the movie theater to watch the first screening of Roblox's first movie.

Development
On November 28, 2023, Roblox Corporation posted an X (formerly known as tweet in Twitter due to being rebranded to X), showing an image that are almost pitch black with an avatar on it. People were confused with what it was, so they start talking about it. When they turned up the brightness, it shows 2 movie cameras between a scared avatar with a text saying "We're reimagining an animated film experience". The announcement went viral after people saw this investigation.

On December 12, 2023, Roblox made a blog post on their website about the film, explaining their partnership with Universal Pictures and Illumination, with a release date for September 2026. On May 23, 2024, it was reported that Phil Lord and Christopher Miller had signed on to direct, produce, and write the story for Roblox. During the event of RDC 2024, it was stated that the film would be “the standard for video game movies, being a film that both fans and casual viewers can enjoy”. In the same month, it was also announced that Derek Connolly would write the screenplay while Robert Smigel would co-write the film. Originally, Universal and Roblox was thinking about making it a live action/animated hybrid a la Ready Player One style, but Illumination and the Lord Miller duo disapprove that idea. Plans shifted from a live-action/CGI hybrid film to a fully animated film that would be "in the same vein as the source material".

Writing
The writing began on May 7, 2024, though the script was still in progress. During an interview with BBC News, Lord and Miller were writing and discussing the first few drafts for a Roblox movie and would have fully written the film after the release of Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse. Miller announced that the first draft of the script was completed. In an interview with Collider, producer Chris Meledandri confirmed that Lord and Miller were rewriting the script during the production, saying that "while we were working on this film, we've started to notice that most people criticize us for one reason, and that is because we were playing it safe. So for this film, we decided to take criticisms very seriously this time and make the best we can think of."

The narrative starts at the creation of the Roblox universe and just as the journey of Jake and his friends begins. According to Lord and Miller, Roblox takes place in an alternate universe. Miller explained that “we wanted to try and tell a more complicated and sophisticated version of the story that we did with The LEGO Movie, where we had two different beings going against each other, like good vs evil. And part of the fun of the movie is trying to figure out what’s happening in the Roblox universe." For Omar's character, Smigel described it as "a natural evolution of an autistic person", confirming that he will have some character developments as the story progresses. In order to do the portrayal well, the filmmakers hired consultants from Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN) and autistic people as writing assistants and supervisors so that Frank Welker can spent time with them to understand the experience.

Casting
Voice actors and actresses, such as Oscar Isaac, Chris Evans, Jessica Chastain, Mark Wahlberg, Bill Hader, Ben Schwartz, Steve Carell, Ryan Reynolds, Jason Sudeikis, Frank Welker, Max Martini, and Nick Kroll have joined the cast. Jacob Tremblay was also cast to voice a Roblox version of himself. It was confirmed that the podcasters, the McElroy Brothers, will make their appearance in the film. It is also announced that David Baszucki, the creator of Roblox, joins the cast to voice his own character Builderman.

Cinematography
Hoyte van Hoytema (known for collaborating with Christopher Nolan), who serves as the cinematographer, used a combination of IMAX 65 mm and 65 mm large-format film. It is also the second film to shoot sections on IMAX black-and-white photographic film for flashbacks, which Kodak created and FotoKem developed. Van Hoytema used 50mm and 80mm Hasselblad lenses when filming on virtual IMAX cameras, while scenes shot on virtual Panavision cameras were shot using Panavision Sphero 65 and Panavision System 65 lenses. Said Van Hoytema, "When shooting our close-ups, we didn't want the camera to be six feet away from our subject. We wanted to be much tighter, so that you really feel the perspective and the intimacy. Also, I knew we would be filming in low-light situations and would need to shoot at T1.4 rather than a T4."

The film's dialogue made it possible for virtual IMAX cameras to be used as the primary format. Both Panavision and IMAX lenses enabled filming at night. For the first time in an animated film, virtual IMAX cameras were used hand-held, which Lord and Miller advised as the best way to shoot on realms. According to Van Hoytema, he helped the filmmakers with lighting, the aesthetics of the film, and to add a "live-action feel".

Visual effects and animation
Both visual effects and animation were provided by Illumination Studios Paris and Wētā FX. Lord and Miller wanted the film to look like machinima. They added a new technology for a video game engine Roblox Studio which allows people to make professional 3D CGI animation on the characters themselves. This was later finalized and released to the public as an update after the film's release. Meledandri stated that "with new technologies used for this new movie, we're happy to say that they have taken the animation to lengths we have never seen before in our history." The animation team explored multiple design styles for each realm that is within Planet Builder, and developed new animation approaches for some of these styles.

For three hours and three days a week, Lord and Miller met with Wētā, which was in charge of the outer space segments and produced the bulk of the visual effects shots, with 900 in total; Lord remarked that "this is one of the hardest movies we have ever done", as three 3-hour long meetings a week were necessitated to discuss the visual effects. They described the atmosphere as "virtual reality but without the headset". Part of the film takes place in Planet Dark, which was handled by Illumination. The planet inside was a visual effect, and every shot of it had to go through the visual effects department, which was time-consuming and expensive. Both segments of Planet Dark and the outer space segments were post-processed with film grain to improve on-screen detail and depth-of-field

Post-production
In June 2026, Gregory Perler was revealed to be serving as the editor, who previously worked on Despicable Me and Sing franchise. Voice recording began in early 2025 and ended in late 2025, with some scenes re-recorded for re-takes after the San Diego Comic-Con.

Music
The film's original score was composed by Hans Zimmer and Brian Eno. They both incorporated some cinematic electronic and ambient music score to reflect the Roblox universe, as well as the darker, scarier ones for Ellernate's heritage. Lorne Balfe and Roger Eno serves as the executive music producers for the film.

Several artists such as SZA, Megan Thee Stallion, Taylor Swift, DJ Khaled, Ke$ha, Becky G, Jonas Blue, Lil Nas X, Jack Harlow, and Lil Uzi Vert performed new original songs for the film.

The film streamed on Peacock 45 days afterwards. It was released on digital on November 17, 2026 and released by Universal Pictures Home Entertainment on Blu-Ray Disc, Blu-Ray 3D, Ultra HD Blu-Ray (with IMAX Enhanced), Blu-Ray 4K, and DVD on October 23, 2026.

Critical response
On Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 98% based on 282 reviews, with an average rating of 9.1/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "Roblox is not only a mind-blowing film based on a gaming platform, but also acts as a middle finger to modern Disney." It became the highest-rated film based on a video game, beating Werewolves Within respectively. On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 90 out of 100, based on 100 critics, indicating "universal acclaim". Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A+" on an A+ to F scale,, while those at PostTrak gave it an average 4.5 out of 5 stars; social media monitor RelishMix noted online responses to the film were "better than what it was".

Jesse Hassenger of The A.V. Club called it "lovable and entertaining", giving it a grade of A+ and writing "This film is a great way to introduce its new audience into the world of Roblox, and it will definitely entertain those who might be interested in it." TheWrap's Yolanda Machado praised the screenplay and directing and wrote that the film "expands on the entire platform, crafting a story that is timely, inventive, hilarious, emotional, and perfect for all ages."

Critics compared the film favourably to The LEGO Movie and Wreck-It Ralph. Chris Nashawaty of Entertainment Weekly says that it was better than what he expected, saying "They would be unstoppable for Roblox fans around the world. This is The LEGO Movie turned up to an 11." For The Hollywood Reporter, Michael Rechtshaffen wrote "The film brings the characters of the platform together. It kinda reminds me of Wreck-It Ralph, and ultimately that’s all that really matters here."

Industry response
Chris Pratt, who worked with Lord and Miller on The LEGO Movie franchise and voiced Mario on The Super Mario Bros. Movie, described it as "one of the best films he has ever seen”. Comedian and actor Patton Oswalt, who worked with Lord and Miller on 22 Jump Street and voiced Remy in Ratatouille, called the film "masterful" and continued "This has been a non-stop year for me and I'm glad I'm ending it in such a cinematic high-note. Not only is it the best video game film ever made, not only is it one of the best animated films ever made, it's flat-out a game-changing (pun intended) MOVIE. Seeing it again tomorrow!"

Geoff Keighley, host of the Game Awards, called the film a huge step forward for video game movies and noted how much they improved from their past films. Hideo Kojima, most known for their Metal Gear series, called the film “amazing” and continued "It just goes to show you that any character in the right hands can be a transformative and mature experience." Roblox Corporation, despite some initial hesitation and doubts about the film, considered it to be a true success and attributed higher sales of Roblox to the movie’s success and reception.

Accolades
Roblox won numerous awards, including Best Animated Feature at the 99th Academy Awards, 54th Annie Awards, and 84th Golden Globe Awards. It is the second non-Disney/Pixar film to win the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, as well as the first Illumination film to win that award. The film appeared on many critics' top ten lists. Critics at New York Magazine listed it at 2 on their list of the best films of the decade. It also won the Razzie Redeemer Award at the Golden Raspberry Awards.

Legacy
Roblox is widely considered one of the greatest video game adaptations of all time, and one of the greatest and most influential animated movies ever made. Many critics considered the film a "blueprint" for many modern video game movies, particularly for its rejection of a typical video game movie style in favor of a film based on the entire video game franchise. Before Roblox, video game movies closely emulated their video game source material, and though it had seen significant successes such as The Angry Birds Movie 2, Detective Pikachu, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, and The Super Mario Bros. Movie, they were often considered disposable entertainment that did not garner much industry respect.

Cultural impact
Roblox is regarded by many critics as a landmark of video game movies, one that influenced much of the art in the video game world that followed its release with many citing the film as an important influence. Its visual style influenced numerous works in animation, film, music, and television, and video games, utilising its machinima animation style. It has been cited as a major influence on Hollywood films such as Murder Drones: The Movie, Meta Runner, Dimension Wars, Grand Theft Auto: The Movie, Arcadia: Level 2 (the result of Roblox appearing as part of pop culture references), and Ready Player Two. Illumination also reused its machinima style for future video game movies (notably Nintendo Cinematic Multiverse) to make it more authentic. It has also influenced the work of musicians.
