The Super Mario Bros. Motion picture
Only In Theaters April 5, 2023
For the very first time, the iconic international amusement brands Illumination and Nintendo join forces to create The Super Mario Bros. Motion picture, a new, big-screen adventure featuring one of pop culture’s most outstanding plumbers of the past four decades.
Based on the world of Nintendo’s Mario games, the film invites audiences into a vibrant, titillating new cosmos in contrast to any constructed before in an action-packed, excessive cinematic comedy event.
While working underground to mend a water main, Brooklyn plumbers Mario (Chris Pratt; Jurassic World and The LEGO Motion picture franchises) and sibling Luigi (Charlie Day; It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) are transported down a mystifying pipe and roam into a magical new world. But when the brothers are separated, Mario sets out on a terrific quest to find Luigi.
With the assistance of a Mushroom Kingdom resident Toad (Keegan-Michael Key; The Lion King) and some training from the strong-willed ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom, Princess Peach (Anya Taylor-Joy;The Queen’s Gambit), Mario taps into his own power.
The Super Mario Bros. Movie features an uncanny comedic cast, which includes Jack Black (Jumanji films) as Bowser, Seth Rogen (Neighbors franchise) as Donkey Kong, Fred Armisen (Portlandia, Saturday Night Live) as Cranky Kong, Kevin Michael Richardson (American Dad!, Family Guy) as Kamek and Sebastian Maniscalco (Green Book) as Spike, plus a special voice appearance by Charles Martinet, who has voiced the characters of Mario and Luigi in the Super Mario games for more than 3 decades.
The film is directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic (collaborators on Teen Titans Go!, Teen Titans Go! To the Movies) from a playscript by Matthew Fogel (Minions: The Rise of Gru, The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part).
From Nintendo and Illumination—creator of the international megahit Despicable Me, Minions, Sing and The Secret Life of Pets franchises—The Super Mario Bros. Movie is produced by Illumination founder and CEO Chris Meledandri p.g.a. and by Nintendo’s Representative Director and Fellow Shigeru Miyamoto, the creator of Mario, after more than six years of close bond and conversations between the two. The film is co-financed by Universal Pictures and Nintendo and will be released world-wide by Universal Pictures.
