Nintendo are hosting a Nintendo Direct presentation tomorrow (6th October) at 9.05 pm UK time (BST).
Unusually, the presentation will feature no gaming content, but will instead feature the world premiere of the teaser trailer for the upcoming Super Mario movie. The presentation can be viewed via YouTube.
The animated film is being produced by Illumination, and Mario will be voiced by Chris Pratt, who is best known as Star Lord in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy.
The film will be directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic, and Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto is serving as a producer, which gives us hope that the movie will remain more faithful to the source material than 1993’s live-action film, which starred Bob Hoskins as Mario.
The movie will be released in the US on 7th April 2023.

I am sure it will be a great kids movie. I just think it will be ‘nintendo safe’ which means no jokes for the adults. Hopefully there will be lots of references to the games, sure there will be.
