Description

Universal Pictures’ recent registration of domain names related to 'Super Mario Galaxy' in both Spanish and French has ignited a fresh wave of speculation about the title of the next Super Mario Bros.

movie.

As fans eagerly anticipate Nintendo’s next cinematic venture, these moves have intensified interest in the details surrounding the upcoming film, which is slated for release next year. The new domains—SuperMarioGalaxy-LaPelicula.com and supermariogalaxy-lefilm.com—currently redirect users to Universal Pictures’ respective regional homepages.

This discovery was made by fans monitoring for updates on potential movie news.

While the registration of domain names does not always guarantee a title, it is a common practice in the entertainment industry to secure web addresses ahead of major announcements, ensuring brand protection and digital presence. Official information on the next Super Mario film remains limited.

The previous Super Mario Bros.

movie, produced by Nintendo and Illumination, launched in April 2023 for the Nintendo Switch and other platforms, achieving significant commercial success.

As of May 2023, the movie grossed over $1 billion worldwide and further cemented the enduring popularity of the Mario franchise.

Given this track record, the sequel is highly anticipated by both fans and industry observers. Confusion about the sequel’s title has arisen due to conflicting signals from official sources.

Earlier this year, NBCUniversal published an article referencing 'Super Mario World' as the name of the upcoming film.

The reference was later removed from their website, leaving fans to wonder whether the mention was premature or erroneous.

Now, with the emergence of 'Super Mario Galaxy' domains, speculation is mounting over which iconic Mario universe will take center stage in the new movie. When approached for comment, representatives from Universal Pictures declined to confirm the final title or provide any details regarding the storyline.

A spokesperson reiterated Universal’s ongoing partnership with Nintendo and Illumination to produce a high-quality follow-up to the record-setting animated film.

Nintendo has also not commented on the recent domain registrations. The gaming community is particularly attentive ahead of the next Nintendo Direct presentation, expected to include announcements related to the 40th anniversary of Super Mario Bros.

There is growing anticipation that new details about the next movie could be revealed during this broadcast. For now, fans will have to wait for official confirmation from Nintendo, Universal Pictures, or Illumination.

With the legacy of the Super Mario Bros.

series and the success of the first film, expectations run high for whatever title and adventure Nintendo unveils next on the big screen.
