Get ready to trade the Mushroom Kingdom for the cosmos. Following the billion-dollar success of their first cinematic outing, Nintendo and Illumination are taking the plumbing duo to the final frontier. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is officially hitting theaters on April 1, 2026, and it promises to be an out-of-this-world experience.
🚀 A Cosmic Journey Beyond Imagination
The story picks up shortly after the events of the first film. While celebrating Princess Peach’s birthday, a mysterious celestial event whisks Mario, Luigi, and their friends away from the Mushroom Kingdom and into deep space.
There, they encounter the ethereal Princess Rosalina and her companion Luma at the Comet Observatory. But they aren't alone in the stars—a miniaturized Bowser has escaped his cage, and with the help of his mischievous son, Bowser Jr., he’s planning a galactic-scale comeback that could threaten every world in the universe.
🎙️ A Star-Studded Galactic Cast
The original crew returns, joined by some massive names that have the fanbase buzzing:
The Returners: Chris Pratt (Mario), Charlie Day (Luigi), Anya Taylor-Joy (Peach), and Jack Black (Bowser) reprise their iconic roles.
The Newcomers: * Donald Glover as Yoshi: In a surprise MAR10 Day reveal, it was confirmed that Glover will provide the voice for the long-awaited green dinosaur.
Fun Fact: The soundtrack, once again composed by Brian Tyler, features a 100-piece orchestra to recreate the sweeping, symphonic themes that made the original Super Mario Galaxy game a masterpiece.
🌌 Why This is a "Must-Watch"
This film isn't just a sequel; it’s a celebration of Mario’s 40th Anniversary. Early trailers have teased deep-cut references to Super Mario Bros. 2 (including an appearance by Wart, voiced by Luis Guzmán) and gravity-defying action sequences that pay homage to the Wii classics.
Whether you're a lifelong fan who grew up with the NES or a newcomer who loved the 2023 movie, this adventure aims to capture the "magic of the impossible" that only Mario can deliver.
