Following the initial teaser, Nintendo and Illumination have released the first trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. It showcases the direct aftermath of the original (spoilers if you’re one of the few who missed it) while confirming two highly anticipated characters: Rosalina and Bowser Jr.
The former is voiced by Brie Larson (Captain Marvel) while Benny Safdie (Oppenheimer) voices the latter. There are some pretty notable scenes, including Princess Peach fighting off dozens of Ninjis and Mario and Luigi racing through a desert on bikes in Mad Max-style get-ups. Even Rosalina gets in on the action, dismantling a giant robot without breaking a sweat.
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie airs on April 3rd, 2026, in US theaters with Illumination producer Chris Meledandri revealing it’s weeks away from completing animation. He also teased an “incredible range of characters,” including “iconic favorites” and “deep cuts.”
With directorial duo Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic returning alongside screenwriter Matthew Fogel, fans can likely expect it to hit all the right nostalgia notes.
