Release Date Announced for Super Mario Bros Movie on Netflix

The Super Mario Bros. Movie is set to be released on Netflix in the US on December 3. After its initial release in theaters in April and subsequent availability on Peacock in August, the animated film, produced by Illumination, will now be licensed to Netflix in time for the holiday season.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie generated over $1.36 billion in global box office revenue, positioning it as the 16th highest-earning film of all time. Notably, it outperformed blockbuster hits such as Frozen, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. Furthermore, the film's remarkable triumph contributed significantly to increased sales of Mario games, as recently stated by Nintendo during its earnings briefing.

The success of The Super Mario Bros. Movie has created anticipation for a sequel, which appears to be a logical choice from a business perspective. However, no official announcement has been made regarding its development. Meanwhile, Nintendo has entered into a collaboration with Sony Pictures to produce a live-action Zelda movie.

Starring Chris Pratt as Mario, Jack Black as Bowser, Anya Taylor-Joy as Peach, and Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong, The Super Mario Bros. Movie also hints at a potential spin-off centered around Donkey Kong.

As a Super Mario Bros. fan, I am thrilled to hear that the animated movie will be available on Netflix this December. The film's release in theaters was a huge success, and I am excited to see it again from the comfort of my own home. I am also looking forward to sharing it with friends and family who may not have had the opportunity to see it in theaters.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie is a great example of how video game adaptations can be successful. The film stays true to the spirit of the original games while also updating the story and characters for a modern audience. The voice acting is excellent, and the animation is top-notch. I highly recommend this movie to fans of the Mario Bros. franchise and to anyone who enjoys animated films.
