New Animated World Of Super Mario Bros Film Coming in 2026

Illumination and Nintendo, the video game giant, have teamed up for an upcoming animated film centered around the Super Mario Bros. universe. Scheduled for a theatrical release on April 3, 2026, in both the U.S. and international markets, the movie will be directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic, with Matthew Fogel penning the screenplay.

The project will be co-financed by Universal Pictures and Nintendo, with Universal handling worldwide distribution for the theatrical release. Melendantri, the founder and CEO of Illumination, along with Shigeru Miyamoto, Representative Director and Fellow of Nintendo, will serve as producers.

“By getting deeply involved in the movie production with the aim to put smiles on everyone’s faces through entertainment, Nintendo will continue its efforts to produce unique entertainment and deliver it to as many people as possible,’ the company said.

The Super Mario Brothers film was one of the year’s biggest films, being overtaken by only Barbie with 1.3 Billion dollars (1.4 Barbie). The film was a triumph for the studios, therefore a sequel doesn’t surprise anyone as they would love to capitalize on “Mario Fever.”
