Mark the Calendars for Some Cosmic Fun!
Watch out, movie buffs and mushroom enthusiasts! The grand debut trailer for the flick that’s sure to make a splash at family movie night, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, is landing with all the grace of a blue hedgehog on Wednesday, November 12. Yes, you heard it right; this is not just another Tuesday.
Set your alarms for the ungodly hour of 6am PT / 2pm GMT, because who doesn’t love waking up at the crack of dawn to have their mind blown on YouTube? Oh, and let’s not forget the innovative Nintendo Today app if YouTube isn’t cutting it anymore!
Spilling the Beans on Movie Artwork
In a charmingly vague announcement this Monday, a fresh piece of movie artwork was rolled out like the world’s most colorfully packaged rollout of a secret game studio’s next big thing. Spoiler alert: it was way more exciting than a re-release of an old game with a shiny coat of paint.
For those who haven’t been glued to their screens, the fascination with The Super Mario Galaxy Movie kicked off with a sneak peek in September’s Nintendo Direct—no, not *that* Direct, but the one that made dollars instead of just cents! The magic carpet ride to theaters is set for April 2026. Mark those calendars; it’s bound to be an “open-the-pafresh-page-and-see-what-happens” kind of event.
The Dynamic Vocal Cast Returns!
And the voice of Mario? None other than Chris Pratt, taking the role he clearly didn’t bean count on. Joining him will be Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach, Charlie Day as Luigi (which makes perfect sense—every Luigi needs his Day), Jack Black as the ever-mischievous Bowser, Keegan-Michael Key bringing the necessary Toaditude, and the enigmatic Kevin Michael Richardson as Kamek. It’s like a family reunion, only with a lot more mushrooms and power-ups.
Galaxy Shenanigans Ahead
In a fittingly absurd twist, it appears Yoshi is also going to grace this cinematic universe, thanks to an accidental revelation peeking out from a Pillsbury cookies box. Sources hint that Bowser Jr. and Rosalina might drop in as well, proving once again that being a background character in a Mario game is the hottest side gig in town.
In the meantime, the legendary Shigeru Miyamoto chatted with a magazine—because obviously, a conversation with a mere human wouldn’t be satisfying enough. His thoughts on this upcoming spectacle parallel the wise musings of a wizard from a whimsical land. He believes that this sequel is shaping up to be as strong as Mario’s latest power-up! How can anyone not be excited about that?
One of the more quotable moments from Miyamoto involved a laugh about ensuring the team was functioning smoothly. “Many have expressed their desire to work on future projects,” he promised, presumably while munching on some delightful Koopa cookies. “We’re now finalizing the cosmic adventure, and, well, it’s in outer space. That’s all that can be revealed at this point—everything else is classified information or just too weird to explain.”
So, What’s Next?
In conclusion, holding onto a hope for intergalactic hijinks isn’t all that far-fetched, as Miyamoto assured everyone it would be “fun.” Fun is the name of the game, folks! The promise of adventure amid twinkling stars means one thing: popcorn sales just skyrocketed. So, grab that projector, and get ready to take a wild jump through the universe with everyone’s favorite plumber and his wacky pals!
