While the Super Mario Bros. Movie was a box office juggernaut, grossing over $1.3 billion, it received a mixed reception from critics and longtime Mario fans. The film loosely adapted elements from the beloved video game series, throwing Mario and Luigi into the Mushroom Kingdom and pitting them against Bowser.
Now, it seems Nintendo and Universal are aiming for the stars, literally. Super Mario Galaxy, released in 2007 for the Nintendo Wii, is a fan-favorite 3D platformer that sees Mario venturing into space to rescue Princess Peach from Bowser, with the help of Rosalina and her Luma companions. The game is known for its innovative gravity-defying gameplay and surprisingly touching story.
The core cast from the first film is set to return, 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. More casting announcements are expected soon, leaving fans speculating about who will voice Rosalina and other key characters from the Galaxy universe.
The internet is already buzzing with excitement. “I’m so stoked. My fave Mario game is getting a movie, I’m so f***ing happy,” one fan exclaimed on social media. Another added, “If they take some sauce from Galaxy maybe the movie will be good this time.” A third fan pointed out, “Mario Galaxy is one of the more story rich Mario games
