Nintendo and Illumination have revealed the first proper trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, and it's a galactic banger.

We get our first look at Bowser Jr. and Rosaline, plus a whole bunch of new locations based on Super Mario Galaxy and... Odyssey? Yep, there's representation from both games here.

New cast members have also been confirmed, with Brie Larson (Captain Marvel, Room) taking on the role of Rosalina, and Benny Safdie stepping into the shoes of Bowser Jr. If that name doesn't quite ring a bell, Safdie has acted in a number of projects, but is perhaps more notable for is directorial work on Uncut Gems and The Smashing Machine.

Brie Larson has gone on record to express how much of a passionate Nintendo fan she is, going so far as to throw a boyfriend out of her house because she got so invested in Super Mario Galaxy. She has also provided sponsored content for Metroid Dread and has previously expressed interest in starring in a Metroid movie after dressing up as Samus for Halloween.

Of course, the trailer also reiterates the planned release window of April 2026, which isn't too far off at this point. Like the first movie, it seems more than likely that we'll get another Direct / trailer at some point in the next few months or so, so be sure to look out for that.
