General Chungus is a tertiary antagonist in the 2025 fantasy action-adventure film A Minecraft Movie, based on Mojang Studios' Minecraft franchise. A dimwitted yet ferocious servant/henchman, he is the general of the MalgoshaPiglins army, who aids her in destroying Overworld.
Background[]
Personality[]
Unlike Malgosha and the rest of his fellow Piglins, General Chungus is generally friendly and sociable, even maintaining a friendship with Steve during the latter's imprisonment. As such, he is unenthusiastic toward Malgosha's orders to kill Steve and his allies. Despite this, his loyalty lies with Malgosha, and he obeys her orders to find and kill Steve with little argument other than questioning her reasoning. He also, to some extent, talks in a similar fashion to a teenager (around Henry's age), such as him referring to his job of killing Steve as "unaliving" him (which could just be the movie's way of staying kid-friendly).
Physical appearance[]
He looks like the other piglins, only slightly bigger and wears more armor made of iron.
Role in the film[]
General Chungus first appears in the Nether, being ordered by Malgosha to invade Midport Village and kill Steve. Despite his lack of enthusiasm at these orders, Chungus follows through and takes an army of Piglins to lay siege to the village.
During the invasion, Chungus is engaged by the human Garrett, who he defeats easily. Soon after however, Chungus is in turn defeated by the village's Iron Golem.
Despite the damage he caused to Midport Village, Chungus was ultimately unsuccessful in his goal of killing the protagonists. He is next seen back in the Nether being scolded by Malgosha. Chungus expresses confusion as to why they must kill Steve. Malgosha, angered by this, orders her newly finished Great Hog to blast Chungus with its arm cannon. It obeys, killing Chungus instantly.
