Mario Bros., the animated film inspired by the Nintendo classic, will star Chris Pratt and Anya Taylor-Joy. It is one of the most anticipated releases for 2023.
2023 is drawing near. With next year just around the corner come announcements, plans and previews of everything Hollywood has in store for it. Thus, one of the most commented premieres is that of Super Mario Bros. The adaptation of the popular video game is Nintendo’s return to the big screens. The company has been very zealous about allowing its products to become Hollywood films. This, after the critical and box office failure of titles such as live action of Mario in 1993.Other of his successes on consoles such as The Legend of Zelda, Metroid or Fire Emblem have sounded to make the leap to the cinema. However, the Japanese giant has not allowed it. Still, the plumber brothers will have another chance, but this time not in person but in animation. It is the result of an alliance between Nintendo and illuminationwhich is the creator studio of The Minions. The Secret Life of Pets, Sing and the Saga of My favorite villain are other credits that made the company a reliable ally. In this way, the project is getting closer and will be directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic. The script will be written by Matthew Fogel while he himself Chris Meledandrihead of Illumination, will produce it. However, trusted names will not only be on the board, but also on the distribution as such. Nothing more and nothing less than Chris Pratt, remembered by Guardians of the Galaxy and Jurassic World, will give voice to the popular mustachioed plumber. At the same time, Anya Taylor-Joy (Lady’s Gambit/Furiosa) will play Princess Peach. Charlie Day will play Luigi; Seth Roger, Donkey Kong; Keegan-Michael Key, Toad and Jack BlackBowser.It should be noted that charles marinetwho gives voice to Mario and other characters in video games, will be in the film. Although it is an animated film, it is not expected to be 100% childish, but rather to have a high tone of comedy. The above will seek to captivate the younger audience, but without leaving out the real fans of the franchise, who have been playing for decades.
important announcements
First official poster of Mario Bros. Before the countdown to see the movie on screen, the studio published a first official poster on Tuesday. In this, Mario is seen from behind in a mushroom village like Toad. That, surely, will be the main scene of the beginning of the plot. In the same way, in the heights you can see the castle and other well-remembered maps from the game. Surely many things that have never been thoroughly explained on consoles make sense. The poster has not yet revealed the official title of the feature film, so it is believed that it will simply be Mario Bros. What was reported is that on Thursday 6 october will come the first teaser (advancement). The preview will be broadcast live here.The Mario Bros. movie will be released in theaters next April 7, 2023. In Japan, however, it will arrive on the 28th of the same month.
