Nintendo has unveiled the final trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, set to arrive in theaters on April 1. The footage includes visual gags and references to the original game, with confirmations on voice actors and plot elements. A larger presentation also featured interviews with key figures in the production.
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, a sequel to the previous Mario film, is scheduled for theatrical release on April 1. Nintendo released the final trailer on March 10, 2026, which largely recaps elements from earlier previews but introduces a few new details.
One highlight is the return of Lumalee, the cheerfully nihilistic character from the first film, now depicted as a prison guard, inverting its previous cage-bound role.
Accompanying the trailer was a broader presentation that included interviews with actors and franchise creator Shigeru Miyamoto. Several casting announcements were made during this event. Donald Glover will voice Yoshi, the long-tongued dinosaur, suggesting the character may have more dialogue beyond its traditional utterances. Luis Guzman is set to portray Wart, the antagonist from Super Mario Bros. 2. Issa Rae will voice Honey Queen, the large bee from the Super Mario Galaxy games.
Lead actors Chris Pratt and Charlie Day confirmed that Luigi participates fully in the adventure this time, unlike his limited cage subplot in the original movie. Illumination CEO Chris Meledandri stated that the film still holds "some big surprises" for audiences.
A rumor persists about a potential appearance by Fox McCloud from the Star Fox series, though this remains unconfirmed. The presentation aims to build anticipation without major plot spoilers.
