Agent Derp: Stronghold Protocol is an upcoming American computer-animated espionage comedy adventure film based on the 2011 video game Minecraft, developed by Mojang Studios. Produced by Mob Studios, Mob Studios Animation, Mob Productions, and Mojang Studios, it is the eighth film in the Minecraft Universe (MIU), the second film of Minecraft Universe: Chapter Two, and a sequel to Agent Derp (2030) and the Disney+ miniseries Stronghold (2035). The film is directed by Alex Brow from a screenplay he co-wrote with Talia Grant and Owen Mercer, based on a story by former director Jackson Gold and Freddie Goodwin.
Scott Menville stars as Derp / Agent D-0, alongside Jenny Slate, John Boyega, Jeffrey Wright, Patti Harrison, Rami Malek, Ruth Wilson, Steven Yeun, Giancarlo Esposito, Ke Huy Quan, Sam Rockwell, Shohreh Aghdashloo, and Gugu Mbatha-Raw. The film follows Derp, Cipher, and Flint after Director Zero escapes into the stronghold network and activates a system capable of replacing the recorded identities of Bureau personnel, settlement leaders, and entire communities.
A sequel to Agent Derp entered development following the first film's release, with Gold and Goodwin developing a story about Derp attempting to work as a legitimate operative. The project was announced in March 2033 under the title Agent Derp: Stronghold Protocol, with an August 15, 2035, release date. The miniseries Stronghold was developed as the first portion of the film's storyline. Voice recording began in August 2034 and principal animation began that December.[1][2][3]
Following a poorly received internal assembly, Mob Studios paused production in April 2035. Gold and Goodwin left their positions as director and screenwriter the following month, while retaining producer and story credits, respectively. On June 18, Brow was announced as director and co-writer alongside Grant and Mercer. Brow said he assumed control to “ensure it is a quality that meets a standard like the previous few films that have been released”. The film was delayed to June 19, 2036, as part of a wider postponement of every unreleased Chapter Two project.[4][5][6][7][8]
Brow, Grant, and Mercer completed the replacement screenplay in August 2035. Principal voice recording resumed in September, and principal animation restarted in October using revised character performances and selected environments, props, and technical systems retained from the original production. The film's teaser poster was released on November 14, becoming the first promotional material created specifically for Brow's version.[9][10][11][12]
Agent Derp: Stronghold Protocol is scheduled to be released in the United States on June 19, 2036.
Premise
After Director Zero takes control of the abandoned stronghold network, Derp, Cipher, and Flint must stop the Stronghold Protocol from replacing the identities and histories of Bureau personnel and entire settlements.
Voice cast
- Scott Menville as Derp / Agent D-0:
An accident-prone repair worker and Obsidian Bureau operative whose contradictory personnel history prevents Director Zero from generating a stable replacement for him.[13] Brow described Derp as the only person in the organization whose mistakes have created a record too inconsistent for the Protocol to classify, making his apparent incompetence strategically useful.[14] Menville said the film places Derp in a more difficult position than the first installment because he is no longer trying to convince others that he belongs in the Bureau; instead, he must decide what kind of agent he intends to become.[15] - Jenny Slate as Cipher:
The Bureau's chief analyst and architect of its public records system. Cipher attempts to preserve the independent identities of generated operatives while preventing Director Zero from using them to take control of settlements.[13] Slate said Cipher's role continues the moral decision she made at the conclusion of Stronghold, but the film forces her to defend that decision outside the controlled environment of Bureau facilities.[16] - John Boyega as Flint:
The Bureau's field commander, who leads its response after strongholds begin replacing local governments, emergency records, and public memory.[13] Flint's relationship with K-0 remains complicated by K-0's memories of a partnership Flint cannot recover.[17] - Jeffrey Wright as Director Zero:
An artificial command identity assembled from the authority, emergency instructions, and recorded decisions of previous Bureau directors. Zero considers the publicly supervised Bureau an unauthorized replacement and activates the Stronghold Protocol to restore what it regards as the original organization.[18] Wright recorded several versions of Zero's dialogue to distinguish the character's administrative, persuasive, and coercive voices.[19] - Patti Harrison as Needle:
A Bureau technician, repair specialist, and Derp's principal operational partner. Needle develops portable tools capable of identifying alterations made to physical records and settlement infrastructure.[20] - Rami Malek as Agent K-0 / Kestrel:
A generated operative who remembers serving as Flint's partner during missions absent from the Bureau's surviving public history. K-0 opposes Zero but fears that destroying the stronghold network could also destroy the people generated by it.[18] - Ruth Wilson as Agent Sable:
A generated intelligence officer who escaped with Director Zero at the conclusion of Stronghold. Sable accepts that her personal history was manufactured but believes that its consistency gives her greater legitimacy than the reformed Bureau.[18] - Steven Yeun as Agent Oriole:
A generated recovery specialist who helps the Bureau locate people and settlements erased from the Protocol's official history.[18] - Giancarlo Esposito as Obsidian:
The Bureau's former director, whose emergency contingency systems were combined to create Director Zero. Obsidian assists the response while resisting attempts to treat his knowledge as proof that he should regain control of the organization.[20] - Ke Huy Quan as Agent D-27:
A courier and field operative whose contradictory service record suggests that generated personnel briefly existed before the collapse of the World Loom.[20] - Sam Rockwell as the Broker:
A former Bureau operative and black-market information dealer imprisoned after the first film. The Broker possesses a stolen directory of strongholds omitted from the Wayfinder Atlas.[21] - Shohreh Aghdashloo as Councillor Mara Vey:
The chair of the civilian council supervising the Bureau. Vey attempts to protect settlements without granting the organization the emergency authority demanded by Zero.[21] - Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Dr. Ilya Voss:
A memory engineer who helped construct the Black Index verification systems. Voss studies whether identities rewritten by the Protocol can be restored without replacing them with an earlier version.[21]
Michelle Yeoh and Ayo Edebiri are expected to reprise their roles as Sola and Nia Vale in supporting appearances, while Jodie Comer is expected to return as Lyra.[22] Mob Studios has not announced the complete cast or the actors voicing several new generated operatives.
Production
Development
Original development
Gold and Goodwin began discussing a sequel to Agent Derp during the first film's post-production in 2030. Their earliest concept followed Derp after his mistaken recruitment became permanent and he was required to follow the procedures he had previously survived through improvisation and accident.[23]
The pair developed a treatment in which the Wayfinder Atlas began issuing routes under the names of nonexistent operatives. The idea was expanded after the conclusion of Agent Derp, where the Obsidian Bureau accepted public oversight and began converting its hidden infrastructure into an emergency network.[24]
Mob Studios formally announced the film during its Chapter Two presentation on March 28, 2033. Gold was attached to direct and produce, Goodwin to write, and Menville, Slate, and Boyega to return. The studio scheduled the film for August 15, 2035.[1]
Grant's Disney+ miniseries Stronghold was developed simultaneously as the first part of the story. It introduced the Black Index, generated operatives, K-0, Sable, Oriole, and Director Zero, and concluded with Zero escaping into the wider stronghold network. Gold and Goodwin participated in continuity discussions but Grant retained authority over the miniseries.[3][25]
Goodwin completed a production screenplay in July 2034. It followed Derp and the Bureau through several strongholds as Zero attempted to restore the organization's former command structure. Principal voice recording began in August, and principal animation began in December.[2]
Production pause and creative overhaul
An internal assembly was screened for Brow, Cross, Elridge, Grant, and senior Mob Studios Animation personnel in April 2035. Reports described concern that the film repeated the miniseries' explanations, reduced Cipher and Flint's decisions to setup, and left Derp outside the central identity conflict for much of the story.[26]
The assembly also shifted repeatedly between broad physical comedy, espionage action, and extended dialogue concerning the Black Index. Cross believed that the tonal changes were not inherently incompatible but had not been integrated through one character's perspective.[27]
Mob Studios paused voice recording, layout, and character animation on April 28 while retaining the design, environment, rigging, and technical teams. Gold and Goodwin revised the film during May but ultimately left their positions as director and screenwriter. The studio described the departures as creative changes and retained Gold as a producer and Gold and Goodwin as the credited story writers.[4][5]
Brow was announced as director on June 18. Grant joined to preserve the characters and moral consequences of Stronghold, while Mercer joined because of his work on Chapter Two's rules concerning memory, reconstruction, and generated identities. Brow also became a credited screenwriter.[6]
Brow stated that the original production contained “a lot of incredible design, performances and individual sequences” but lacked a story that could only be led by Derp. He said he took the helm to “ensure it is a quality that meets a standard like the previous few films that have been released”.[7]
The film was delayed from August 15, 2035, to June 19, 2036, as part of Mob Studios' postponement of every unreleased Chapter Two project. Cross said the additional ten months would be used for rewriting, new recording, animation, and editorial reconstruction rather than merely extending post-production.[8][28]
The reported production budget remained $195 million in June 2035, though trade publications expected the final cost to increase because of the pause and replacement work. Mob Studios did not provide a revised figure by November.[29][30]
Restarting production
Brow, Grant, and Mercer began from the Gold–Goodwin story rather than discarding the project completely. They retained Director Zero's escape, the generated operatives, the stronghold network, and the Bureau's conflict with public oversight, but removed a plot in which Zero created an identical replacement for Derp.[31]
The writing team completed a new outline in July 2035. Brow said the replacement version centers on the Protocol attempting to replace communities through records rather than generating obvious physical duplicates, allowing the threat to affect maps, laws, roles, relationships, and collective memory.[32]
A complete revised screenplay was approved on August 22. Cross authorized new voice recording and principal animation after a table read involving the main cast and representatives from the Stronghold writing staff.[9][33]
Principal voice recording resumed on September 8, and principal animation restarted on October 6. Brow estimated that approximately one quarter of the original environments and technical assets could be retained, while most completed dialogue and character animation would be replaced or substantially re-edited.[10][11][34]
By November 2035, the opening act, several stronghold transitions, and the principal settlement-replacement sequence were in animation. Layout had also begun on the final act, while additional recording remained scheduled for early 2036.[35]
Writing
The replacement screenplay treats the events of Stronghold as established character history but does not reproduce the miniseries' investigation. Grant said the film explains the Stronghold Protocol through its present effects and assumes that generated agents are independent people, allowing the story to begin with the consequences of that decision.[36]
Brow identified Derp's contradictory record as the film's central dramatic and comic device. The first film's Bureau mistakenly interpreted his accidents as evidence of an exceptional undercover identity; Director Zero instead treats those contradictions as corruption that must be corrected. Derp's inability to satisfy any official description prevents the Protocol from defining or replacing him.[14]
The writers reduced the number of strongholds visited and expanded one settlement, Meridian Crossroads, as the principal example of the Protocol rewriting public history. Its residents gradually accept generated officials, renamed streets, and altered relationships because every record supports the new version.[37]
Cipher and Flint remain co-leads. Cipher attempts to preserve the generated agents without preserving Zero's authority over them, while Flint must accept that K-0's memories carry emotional consequences even when he cannot verify their shared past.
Sable serves as the principal field antagonist. Grant said Sable does not believe herself to be a fake and does not support Zero out of gratitude; she believes the Protocol is the only institution willing to guarantee that generated people cannot be erased when public records change.[38]
Obsidian's storyline concerns responsibility without restored authority. The screenplay allows him to identify systems he created, but the Bureau's council refuses to let expertise become a route back to leadership. Brow said the film does not present Obsidian as secretly correct about the need for an unaccountable organization.[39]
The tone combines the physical and verbal comedy of Agent Derp with the institutional mystery of Stronghold. Brow described Derp's comedy as “damage with consequences”: his mistakes disrupt Zero's perfect systems but may also endanger people whose identities depend on those systems.[40]
The revised film removed several direct explanations of Herobrine. Corrupted player signatures remain within the stronghold records, connecting the story to Minecraft: The Man Who Wasn't There, but no character identifies them during the film's main conflict.[41]
Pre-production
Casting
Menville, Slate, and Boyega were attached when the film was announced. Harrison, Esposito, and Quan joined in November 2033, while Wright, Malek, Wilson, and Yeun were contracted for both Stronghold and the feature film.[13][20][18]
Rockwell entered negotiations to return as the Broker in November 2034. Aghdashloo and Mbatha-Raw were also in talks to continue as Councillor Vey and Dr. Voss. Their casting was confirmed in July 2035 after the revised outline retained all three characters.[42][21]
Mob Studios announced in June that the principal cast would not be changed during the creative overhaul. Brow said the production's problems were structural and not related to the performances recorded under Gold.[43]
Menville, Slate, Boyega, Harrison, Malek, Wilson, and Yeun participated in the August table read. Wright joined remotely, while Esposito and Quan recorded temporary material for scheduling reasons.[33]
Yeoh, Edebiri, and Comer were reported to have recorded supporting material during the resumed sessions. Mob Studios had not formally detailed their roles as of November 2035.[22]
Design
Mob Studios Animation began visual development in May 2034 using the stronghold, Black Index, and Bureau systems created for the Disney+ miniseries. Production designer Mara Venn sought to expand the network from enclosed facilities into complete settlements whose architecture and public information could change without obvious physical destruction.[44]
The original production designed nine principal strongholds. Brow's version retains five and combines functions from the others. Each facility is associated with a form of institutional control, including identity, transport, emergency authority, evidence, and settlement planning.[45]
Meridian Crossroads was designed as a functioning market settlement that gradually adopts the visual identity of an Obsidian Bureau stronghold. Road signs become route codes, homes receive office numbers, public noticeboards become personnel files, and villagers' clothing changes to match occupations assigned by the Protocol.[46]
Director Zero's physical form was redesigned after the pause. The miniseries presented Zero as a composite of several director uniforms; the film gives the character a more modular appearance, with pieces changing according to which stronghold supplies its authority.[47]
Derp's field equipment includes an incorrectly assembled portable portal, a repair bag containing incompatible Bureau tools, and an identification badge that continuously changes his operative number. Needle's equipment uses transparent overlays to reveal previous versions of altered signs, maps, and records.[48]
The visual-effects team developed a “record replacement” system that changes both environments and character reactions. A building may remain physically identical while signs, routes, ownership marks, and the memories of nearby residents are replaced in stages.[49]
Voice recording
Principal voice recording for the original production began on August 19, 2034. Menville, Slate, Boyega, Harrison, Esposito, and Quan recorded the first sessions, followed by the cast developed for Stronghold.[2]
Several performers recorded together to preserve the ensemble timing of the first Agent Derp. Gold encouraged improvisation during Derp and Needle's repair sequences, while Cipher and Flint's scenes were performed more closely to Goodwin's screenplay.[50]
Recording was suspended with production in April 2035. The editorial department assembled surviving performances so the replacement writers could determine which material remained compatible with the new screenplay.[4]
Recording resumed on September 8 under Brow. Menville re-recorded most of Derp's dialogue, while Slate and Boyega retained portions of several scenes whose objectives survived the rewrite. Brow used ensemble sessions more extensively, including Menville, Slate, Boyega, Harrison, Malek, and Yeun in the same recording space for several Bureau sequences.[10]
Wright recorded Director Zero separately in October. His performance used fewer layered voices than in Stronghold, reflecting Zero's attempt to present itself as one stable individual rather than an institution speaking through several systems.[19]
The principal fall recording period concluded on November 7. Additional recording, including new supporting characters and revisions generated during animation, is scheduled for early 2036.[51]
Animation
Principal animation began in December 2034. By the production pause, several environments, action tests, and portions of the original opening had entered lighting, but most character animation remained incomplete.[52]
During the pause, Mob Studios Animation catalogued every asset and shot as reusable, revisable, reference-only, or abandoned. Cross said environments and technical systems survived more frequently than character scenes because the revised screenplay changed motivations, timing, and sequence order.[53]
Principal animation restarted on October 6. The opening was rebuilt around Derp repairing an emergency route while the surrounding settlement gradually changes into a Bureau facility. Animation also began on a minecart pursuit in which route signs continuously redirect the characters toward identities assigned by Zero.[11][54]
The film uses a more physically expressive version of Derp than Stronghold, while retaining the miniseries' restrained movement for Cipher, Flint, and Director Zero. Brow wanted Derp's motion to appear incompatible with the rigid geometry and timing of the stronghold network.[55]
Generated agents use complete textures from the beginning of the film because Stronghold established their independence. New identities created by Zero initially contain visual gaps corresponding to information absent from their files, but those gaps fill as the characters make choices outside the Protocol.[56]
The production's revised schedule calls for principal animation to continue through March 2036, followed by final lighting, rendering, and effects.[35]
Editing and post-production
Celia Ford and Matthew Lane are editing the film. Ford edited Agent Derp, while Lane worked on Stronghold and joined the feature after the production pause.[57]
The original assembly reportedly ran approximately 154 minutes and contained temporary animation, storyboards, and repeated explanatory scenes. Brow said its length was less concerning than the absence of a clear escalation through Derp's decisions.[26][58]
Ford and Lane created a continuity assembly from the reusable Gold material before the revised voice recording began. The assembly allowed the writers to preserve individual performances and visual ideas without preserving the original sequence structure.[59]
Editorial work continued alongside animation as of November 2035. Mob Studios had not announced a target runtime, and full post-production was expected to continue into the second quarter of 2036.[35]
Music
Weston Doyle and Maya Chen are composing the score. Doyle created the Obsidian Bureau theme for Agent Derp, while Chen composed the episodic music for Stronghold.[60]
The score combines the first film's comedic brass, hand percussion, and improvised repair rhythms with the miniseries' prepared piano, redstone clicks, low strings, and Black Index motif. Doyle said the film's musical conflict concerns a theme that repeatedly attempts to correct Derp into the expected rhythm and fails.[61]
Director Zero's theme from Stronghold is reorganized into a fixed march, while Cipher and Flint's themes retain irregular notes representing missing information. Generated agents receive individual variations rather than sharing one Black Index motif.
Doyle and Chen began composing to the revised storyboards in September 2035. Recording is scheduled for early 2036, and Mob Studios Music plans to release a soundtrack album alongside the film.[62]
Marketing
The title was announced with the original Chapter Two slate on March 28, 2033. The first logo placed the Obsidian Bureau eye inside an End portal frame whose blocks displayed different agent identification numbers.[1]
A first-look image released on September 19, 2034, depicted Derp, Cipher, and Flint inside a stronghold corridor lined with personnel photographs. Mob Studios did not release footage from the original Gold production.[63]
The finale of Stronghold ended with the mission designation “Stronghold Protocol” and the original August 15, 2035, release date. Disney+ replaced the date card with “Coming to theaters” after production was paused.[64]
Following the June restructuring, Mob Studios withdrew the original promotional calendar, removed the first-look image from the project's principal promotional pages, and said marketing would resume only after the revised screenplay and production schedule were approved.[65]
The film's first teaser poster was released on November 14, 2035. It depicts Derp standing beneath an incomplete stronghold doorway while rows of Bureau identification photographs change to display his face. The Bureau eye above the doorway is divided into the identification numbers D-0 and 0. Its tagline reads “NO RECORD. NO REPLACEMENT.”[12]
Commentators noted that the poster emphasizes Derp rather than Director Zero or the wider ensemble and interpreted it as a public confirmation that Brow's version would center the character more directly.[66] The design also removes the original End-portal title frame and uses a damaged version of the Obsidian Bureau symbol introduced in Stronghold.
Mob Studios released a short motion version of the poster in which Derp's identification photograph changes through several incorrect names before returning to D-0. No footage from the film was included.[67]
Brow said the teaser poster began a new campaign created entirely from the replacement production. The first trailer is expected in early 2036, though Mob Studios had not announced a date as of November 2035.[68]
Release
Theatrical
Agent Derp: Stronghold Protocol is scheduled to be released theatrically in the United States on June 19, 2036. It was previously scheduled for August 15, 2035.[8]
The film is planned for release in standard, 3D, IMAX, and other premium large-format formats. Mob Studios had not announced its international schedule, premiere location, runtime, or age rating as of November 2035.
The June 2036 date places the film four months after the special presentation Mushroom Island and approximately four months before Minecraft: The Man Who Wasn't There.[69][41]
Future
The film continues the storyline of Stronghold and is followed by Minecraft: The Man Who Wasn't There, scheduled for October 16, 2036. Corrupted player records found throughout the stronghold network contribute to that film's investigation, but Brow said Stronghold Protocol would resolve its principal conflict with Director Zero rather than end solely as setup.[41][70]
Derp and Needle appear in Mushroom Island, scheduled for February 13, 2036. The special is set during the production gap between Stronghold and the film and follows evidence recovered from a dormant stronghold.[69]
Menville, Slate, Boyega, Harrison, Wright, Malek, Wilson, Yeun, Esposito, and Quan are expected to remain available for later Chapter Two projects. Members of the Obsidian Bureau ensemble are expected to appear in Minecraft: World Unmade.[71]
