Nintendo Direct Unveils Everything About Super Mario Galaxy Movie
Nintendo recently unveiled a new trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie during a surprise Nintendo Direct presentation. This event was hosted by Shigeru Miyamoto, the legendary creator of Mario. The trailer showcases several beloved characters, including Yoshi, who makes his debut on the big screen.
Exciting Trailer Highlights
The trailer opens with a thrilling scene of Mario and Luigi motorbiking across a desert landscape. This location recalls imagery from Super Mario Odyssey, specifically the inverted pyramid in the Sand Kingdom. The brothers are tasked with unblocking a rogue Warp Pipe, leading them to power up with Fire Flowers.
During their adventure, Mario and Luigi encounter Yoshi, who initially appears fearful but quickly becomes a part of their team. Fans had been anticipating Yoshi’s reveal due to a post-credits scene from the previous Super Mario Bros. Movie, where a green Yoshi egg was shown beginning to crack.
New Characters and Classic Cameos
- Birdo: First shown angrily firing eggs at Princess Peach while she protects herself with a parasol.
- Mouser: This lesser-known character from Super Mario Bros. 2 makes an appearance, suggesting a connection to the film’s plot.
- Lakitu: Another classic character who fires projectiles at Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi in an action-packed scene.
The trailer concludes with a striking moment featuring Yoshi holding a weapon similar to the Super Scope from the SNES, alongside Toad, who is cradling Baby Luigi and Baby Mario. This group faces a formidable T-Rex reminiscent of those seen in Super Mario Odyssey.
Production Updates and Voice Cast
The Nintendo Direct confirmed that The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is in post-production after completing its animation work. The film will feature memorable themes from the Super Mario Galaxy series, re-recorded by a 70-piece orchestra.
As for the voice cast, no new actors have been confirmed for Yoshi or others, although we do know some returning stars. Chris Pratt voices Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy returns as Princess Peach, and Charlie Day voices Luigi. Jack Black reprises his role as Bowser, while Keegan-Michael Key and Kevin Michael Richardson return as Toad and Kamek, respectively.
Release Date
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is set to hit theaters on April 1, two days earlier than previously announced. This change aligns the release with other international markets, building excitement among fans worldwide.
