During the Mario Day Celebration on March 10, 2024, the announcement was made. The renowned Mario creator, Shigeru Miyamoto, formally announced that The Super Mario Bros. Movie 2 is being developed.

This reveal emphasised the imaginative concept for the impending follow-up. Renowned for his inventive game designs and inventive storytelling, Miyamoto voiced his enthusiasm for expanding the Mario movie universe.

In this impending sequel, will Nintendo and Illumination—the animation studio behind the first film—go beyond Mushroom Kingdom and its denizens? Will any other Nintendo series cross over with it?

The potential plot for ‘The Super Mario Bros Movie 2’

The Mario brothers are plumbers who are initially presented to the audience in the first film. They struggle to find work despite their dire need for it. They eventually find themselves in a different universe due to an odd series of events.

They end themselves apart in this alternate reality; Mario goes to the Mushroom Kingdom, while Luigi ends up in the Dark Lands, where he is taken prisoner by Bowser, the Koopa king, who is infatuated with Princess Peach.

Mario sets off on a mission to free Luigi after learning of his brother’s fate. Donkey Kong, Toad, and Princess Peach join him. Here are several allusions along with colourful and amusing action scenes. A treat for fans of this jittery plumber and his sibling is the Super Mario Bros. Movie.

The upcoming sequel is expected to send them on a journey outside of the Mushroom Kingdom and the Dark Lands. It’s possible that fans with keen eyes noticed that Yoshi’s homeland appeared in the first movie. In Mario’s realm, a Yoshi can also be seen in the end. This unmistakably suggests a potential path for the sequel. Yoshi’s Island will probably play a significant role in Super Mario Bros. 2.

After the unprecedented popularity of “Peaches,” let’s hope Jack Black releases another single and that Luigi has a bigger role in this follow-up. Every single important game in this enormous franchise was referenced in one way or another in the first film, which was similarly jam-packed with them. From Luigi’s Mansion to Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros. It would be interesting to see what the creators have in store for us going forward.

Will the original voice cast return?

Although the original cast of The Super Mario Bros. Movie has not yet confirmed their participation in the follow-up, there is a good likelihood that everyone will return given the success of the first film, which went on to become one of the highest grossing animated films ever. Most likely, the ensemble will reappear in the follow-up.

Everyone is expected to return to their respective roles, including Chris Pratt as Mario and Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach. It’s also anticipated that Charlie Day, who provided Luigi’s voice, will make a comeback to lend his humorous charm to the role. Lastly, it is anticipated that Jack Black, whose performance as Bowser contributed to the success of this movie, will feature in this new production.

‘The Super Mario Bros. Movie 2’ release date

In a recent tweet, Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto revealed the release date for The Super Mario Bros. Movie 2. He declared that the eagerly anticipated follow-up will hit Japanese theatres on April 24, 2026. The highly anticipated sequel is set to hit theatres in the United States on April 3, 2024, as originally promised. It’s unclear whether or not the release dates will coincide for additional regions.

For fans of the Super Mario Bros. series, this is an enormously exciting time. In addition to taking pleasure in the many games in the beloved series, they now have an expanding library of films to anticipate.
