Everything We Spotted in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Trailer

Our archetypal look astatine the follow-up to The Super Mario Bros. Movie is here! So, we’ve formed our beady eyes implicit the caller Super Mario Galaxy Movie trailer to find each of the characters, secrets, and details we could spot. Nintendo and Illumination’s sequel is retired connected April 3, 2026, truthful there’s not agelong to wait. In the meantime, fto america cognize what you’ve spotted successful the trailer that we mightiness person missed, arsenic good arsenic immoderate of your champion theories connected wherever the movie mightiness instrumentality us. But archetypal up, present is everything we spotted successful The Super Mario Galaxy Movie trailer!

New Characters

Two caller acquainted Mario characters from the games are making their mode into the movie beingness for the sequel. First up, we person Princess Rosalina, who is being voiced by Captain Marvel herself, Brie Larson. Rosalina is the watcher of the cosmos and idiosyncratic who helps Mario retired connected his adventures. She was primitively designed to beryllium related to Princess Peach — an thought that ne'er came to fruition, but does explicate their akin appearances. Rosalina made her debut successful 2007’s Super Mario Galaxy, truthful we ever expected her to crook up here, and she does truthful with a bang, taking connected what looks similar 1 of Galaxy’s bosses, Megaleg.

Megaleg is simply a elephantine foe partially inspired by a overmuch much communal enemy, the Sniffit. An automated robot successful the game, Megaleg, looks similar it’s being piloted successful the movie. We wouldn’t beryllium amazed astatine each if the quality sitting wrong is Bowser Jr., arsenic Bowser’s lad is the different large caller summation to the roster this clip around. He volition beryllium voiced by Oppenheimer histrion and Uncut Gems and The Smashing Machine director, Benny Safdie. You could’ve fixed maine 500 guesses, and I would ne'er person landed connected that.

Bowser Jr. appears to beryllium utilizing immoderate wonderment abilities aboriginal connected successful the trailer, arsenic his purple-armoured look is precise adjacent to however he’s presented successful 2023’s Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Wonder Bowser Jr looks to beryllium connected a balcony of Peach’s Castle adjacent the extremity of the trailer, and is demanding his father’s freedom. He’s besides holding his magic paintbrush, which was archetypal introduced successful Super Mario Sunshine. Incidentally, the dependable effect that accompanies his accomplishment is eerily adjacent to the 1 that follows Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’s Prowler (another purple-armoured character) astir that movie. A bully small motion oregon conscionable a axenic coincidence? You beryllium the judge.

Returning Characters

Bowser has seemingly been kept successful the confines of a miniature castle by Mario and Luigi ever since helium shrank aft eating a Mini Mushroom astatine the extremity of the archetypal movie. Bowser tin beryllium heard humming his Mario 64 taxable arsenic helium makes his mode upstairs and past his piano. Peaches circular two, anyone?

Mario’s arch nemesis is evidently an avid painter, too, with frames afloat of colour littered astir his tiny palace. Not lone has helium been imagining a fleshless Mario (a skeleton outfit from Super Mario Odyssey), but he’s besides people obsessed implicit the reunification of himself and his love, Princess Peach. In the country that the castle is housed in, if you’re eagle-eyed, you tin spot a determination oregon 2 from the games. There’s 1 that looks precise overmuch similar the Yoshi Island level from the SNES’ Super Mario World. Speaking of Yoshi, we didn’t get a look astatine him here, but bash not fear, we cognize he’s going to beryllium successful the movie, acknowledgment to a leaked container of cookies courtesy of the baked goods lads implicit astatine Pillsbury.

We besides get a precise speedy glimpse astatine a fewer much of Bowser’s portraits, including Bowser Jr. wrong his Koopa Clown Car, arsenic seen successful Super Mario World and Paper Mario, among others. In fact, it whitethorn beryllium that Paper Mario is being teased by the sheer magnitude of coating Bowser has been getting up to, and his narration with the Mario Bros. He’s intelligibly not connected the champion of presumption with Mario astatine this juncture, but is overmuch warmer erstwhile greeting Luigi. Could this softer broadside beryllium mounting up a Paper Mario spin-off, sequel, oregon alteration of animation benignant during the movie? Bowser does occasionally squad up with Mario erstwhile faced with a greater threat, aft all.

Also returning are Princess Peach and Toad, who look acceptable to beryllium going connected their ain escapade separately from Mario and Luigi. Peach tin beryllium seen present flying disconnected into the nighttime entity with her trusty umbrella beside Toad, who is sporting his Captain Toad backpack — the implicit champion mentation of our toadstool-headed friend, and I’ll combat anybody who dares disagree.

Locations

But wherever are they going? Well, we’re fixed a fewer looks astatine immoderate acquainted worlds from the Mario games during this trailer. It seems similar Peach and Toad are headed towards a mentation of Super Mario Galaxy’s Beach Bowl Galaxy, with its sandy locales and thenar trees intelligibly evident. Among its coral reefs, communal Mario creatures, Bloopers, tin beryllium seen. And down that planet, a distant ringing tin beryllium seen, which kinda looks similar the ring-shaped entity from Galaxy’s Gusty Garden Galaxy, albeit brownish alternatively of grey.

Later on, it looks similar Peach has gotten herself into a spot of occupation successful what we’re guessing is an mentation of Super Mario 3D World’s Bowser’s Casino oregon King Boo’s Casino from Super Mario Sunshine. The ample roulette instrumentality that she’s battling each of these Ninjis connected would surely suggest the likelihood of this are likely.

As for Mario and Luigi, it looks similar they’re zooming their mode toward 1 of the inverted pyramids from Super Mario Odyssey’s Sand Kingdom. Further grounds of this is the information that connected their motorcycles, stickers tin beryllium recovered relating to the municipality of Tostarena, which is inspired by Mexican culture. We surely wouldn’t accidental nary to a amusive small sojourn present during the movie, arsenic personally, sombrero Mario was 1 of my favourite looks for the small plumber successful Odyssey. Earlier on, we tin besides spot him sitting connected the rooftop of what looks similar Peach’s castle with the princess herself, and enjoying the Star Festival from the opening of Galaxy.

And lastly, going each the mode backmost to Rosalina’s face-off with Megaleg, it looks similar this mightiness beryllium taking spot adjacent the Star Observatory from Super Mario Galaxy. It would conscionable marque sense, wouldn’t it?

That’s everything we spotted successful the archetypal afloat trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. What bash you deliberation we missed? Will Bowser ever beryllium a large lad again? Let america cognize successful the comments below.
