"The Super Mario Bros. Movie was a huge hit for Nintendo when it first arrived in 2023--becoming the highest-grossing video game movie of all time--and its success led to The Super Mario Galaxy Movie sequel being greenlit. While the first film laid the groundwork for Illumination's animated take on Mario, Luigi, and their first adventure into the Mushroom Kingdom, the next movie will go beyond that setting and explore the cosmos. Ahead of its release next year, here's everything we know so far about the Super Mario Galaxy Movie."
"Following the box-office success of The Super Mario Bros. Movie in 2023, a sequel was quickly greenlit. In 2024, Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto confirmed that work had begun on a "new Super Mario Bros. Movie" during a Mario Day presentation, and that Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic would return to direct, with Illumination Studios Paris handling animation duties. On the soundtrack side, Brian Tyler is also returning to compose a new score for the movie."
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie will be released on April 3, 2026. Plot details remain limited, but the trailer suggests Bowser Jr. will act as the primary antagonist while seeking a way to free Bowser. The film is expected to be a loose adaptation of the Mario Galaxy games and to include Rosalina as a key character. The sequel was greenlit after The Super Mario Bros. Movie became the highest-grossing video game movie. Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic return to direct, Illumination Studios Paris handles animation, Brian Tyler composes, and Brie Larson and Benny Safdie join the voice cast.
