Also known as: ザ・スーパーマリオブラザーズ・ムービー, Supermariomovie
Not to be confused with Super Mario Bros. (1993 Movie), it is an Animated film by Illumination based on the Mario (Series) series, notably featuring an all-star cast of celebrities to voice the characters. Released on April 5, 2023 in the United States and more than 59 more markets with a later Japanese showing on April 28, 2023.
Has grossed over US$1.36 billion in the box office worldwide against a US$100 million budget and been setting records in the process (including the highest-grossing film based on a video game and the first film based on a video game to gross at least US$1 billion, the second highest-grossing film of 2023, and the fourth-highest-grossing animated film) despite mixed reviews from critics which are being offset by positive audience response. As a result, it received three nominations in the 81st Golden Globe Awards, including Best Animated Feature.
The success of the film would lead to the announcement of a sequel to be released in 2026, called The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.
