Shigeru Miyamoto And Chris Meledandri On ‘The Super Mario Galaxy Movie’

  • On Wednesday, April 1, 2026, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie hits theaters as creator Shigeru Miyamoto says Mario has finally become a "person" after 40 years of evolution.
  • The 2023 smash hit The Super Mario Bros. Movie grossed $1.3 billion, prompting Nintendo to team with Illumination and producer Chris Meledandri again after the 1993 live-action flop.
  • Transposing floating-in-space dynamics proved difficult, Miyamoto said, noting "there were lots of discussions about the difference between a gravity experience that's fun to play, and one that's fun to watch."
  • Miyamoto is legendary among Nintendo teams for "upending the tea table," a Japanese phrase referring to his tendency to redo work at very late stages, ensuring elements remain typically Nintendo.
  • A live-action film based on the Legend of Zelda franchise is due for release in May 2027 as Nintendo applies this collaborative approach to future projects.
