Nintendo has officially announced a second Super Mario Bros.
Movie Nintendo Direct, providing fans with a highly anticipated new glimpse at the upcoming animated film.
The dedicated Nintendo Direct will premiere on November 29, 2022, at 2:00 p.m.

CT / 5:00 p.m.

According to Nintendo of America, this presentation will focus solely on the film and will not include any game-related information.
The Super Mario Bros.
Movie is a collaborative production between Nintendo and Illumination, the acclaimed animation studio behind hits like Despicable Me and Sing.
This partnership marks Nintendo's significant return to cinematic storytelling for its flagship franchise since the original live-action adaptation.
The movie is set to debut in 2023 and will be available in cinemas worldwide, with high expectations from both longtime fans and newcomers given the cultural legacy of the Super Mario series and its broader impact on gaming and entertainment.
Nintendo first unveiled the Super Mario Bros.
Movie in September 2021 and has since built anticipation through carefully timed reveals.
The film boasts an all-star voice cast, including Chris Pratt as Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach, and Jack Black as Bowser.
The first trailer, showcased during a previous Nintendo Direct, generated significant buzz, particularly for Jack Black’s portrayal of Bowser, which was praised for its energy and distinct interpretation of the iconic villain.
With this second trailer, audiences are poised to get their first in-depth look at Princess Peach, portrayed by Anya Taylor-Joy.
A preview image shared ahead of the Nintendo Direct features Peach’s Castle throne room, giving fans a taste of the film’s richly designed Mushroom Kingdom settings.
Nintendo has emphasized that the new footage will further develop its cinematic vision for the Super Mario universe while spotlighting beloved characters in fresh, animated contexts.
"Join us at 2:00 p.m.
PT on November 29 for the world premiere of The Super Mario Bros.
Movie’s second trailer," stated Nintendo of America in a recent social media announcement, confirming the trailer’s exclusive focus on the film and reiterating that no new game details would be addressed during this Nintendo Direct.
The Super Mario Bros.
Movie, directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic, continues Nintendo’s increasing efforts to expand the reach of its iconic intellectual property beyond the Nintendo Switch and the eShop to new audiences through film and other media.
As anticipation mounts for both the trailer and the movie’s eventual release, dedicated fans and industry watchers alike are encouraged to tune in for this special presentation and witness the latest chapter in Nintendo’s ongoing entertainment legacy.
For those wanting to revisit previous highlights, the first trailer remains available for viewing and features Jack Black’s captivating take on Bowser, setting the stage for what promises to be a memorable cinematic adventure.
