The sequel to 2023’s smash hit The Super Mario Bros. Movie officially has a title: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.
The title reveal came as part of Friday’s Nintendo Direct, where Nintendo also revealed that the film was set for an Apr. 3, 2026 release.
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is named after 2007’s Super Mario Galaxy, the first Super Mario game to be released for Wii. A critical and commercial success, the game sends Mario to space in a quest to save Princess Peach from Bowser. There, he encounters the powerful Rosalina and the star-like Lumas whom she oversees. (Super Mario Galaxy‘s Lumalee already made his very glum, very funny debut in The Super Mario Bros. Movie.)
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie‘s title reveal teases Mario’s journey to the final frontier. First, it guides us through a peaceful landscape of burrowing Monty Moles and swimming Cheep Cheeps before flying up Princess Peach’s castle, through the clouds, and into space beyond. There, a Luma cheerfully announces, “Let’s-a go!”
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie brings back The Super Mario Bros. Movie‘s star-studded voice cast, including Chris Pratt as Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach, Charlie Day as Luigi, Jack Black as Bowser, Keegan-Michael Key as Toad, and Kevin Michael Richardson as Kamek. Announcement of additional characters and actors for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie will come at a later date. Who will be lending their voice to Rosalina? Which other characters can Super Mario fans expect in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie? And will the sequel cook up a bop as powerful as Bowser’s “Peaches”?
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie hits theaters Apr. 3, 2026.
