Mario's Galactic Adventure Trailer Is Here, Revealing Rosalina and Bowser Jr. Voices
Nintendo alongside Illumination shared the initial complete preview for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie this Wednesday. The reveal happened in a dedicated Nintendo presentation that centered on the forthcoming animated feature.
The follow-up to the 2023 blockbuster The Super Mario Bros. Movie, this new installment will transport Mario to the distant reaches of the cosmos. There, he will encounter a fresh princess character and a formidable new rival in Bowser Jr., the offspring of the Koopa King.
An Interstellar Journey Inspired by Classic Games
In the vein of the Wii console classics that serve as its inspiration, Mario will depart from the cozy environment of the Mushroom Kingdom to explore outer space. During his grand adventure, he will reunite with some recognizable characters, for instance the Luma, a breakout star from the previous film.
However, it seems Mario and his sibling Luigi will face a fresh enemy in the form of Bowser's furious offspring, who seemingly utilizes powers related to metal. Notably, the preview for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is not only concentrated on Galaxy-inspired imagery; it also features references to other beloved games like Super Mario Odyssey and Bowser's Fury.
Star-Studded Voice Cast Come Back and Grow
The movie will welcome back of the initial voice actors, featuring Chris Pratt as Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy as Peach, Charlie Day as Luigi, Jack Black as Bowser, Keegan-Michael Key as Toad, and Kevin Michael Richardson as Kamek.
Joining the cast for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie are Brie Larson, who will voice Rosalina, and Benny Safdie, set to embody Bowser Jr. It was announced by the CEO of Illumination, Chris Meledandri.
A Significant Period for Mario
Mario's latest cinematic adventure is scheduled to arrive around the time of the 40th anniversary of the initial Super Mario Bros. release. Beyond the film, 2026 looks set to be a significant year for Mario and his companions.
Nintendo has three new games publicly declared for the upcoming year, featuring Mario Tennis Fever, a version for Switch 2 of Super Mario Bros. Wonder, and a new Yoshi platformer titled Yoshi and the Mysterious Book.
Release Date Confirmed
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is scheduled to hit theaters on April 3, 2026.
