Super Mario Bros. Movie Fans Are Swooning To Bowser’s Hit Single “Peaches”
The Super Mario Bros. Movie has been making waves since its release last week, becoming a smash hit, breaking records, and having the biggest opening weekend ever for an animated movie. But aside from all that praise, an unexpected highlight in the movie has become a fan favorite that we will likely be hearing about for a while.
Alongside Chris Pratt and Anna Taylor Joy, we are treated to a stellar showing from Jack Black as Bowser who, in classic fashion, managed to work a musical number into the movie, and it’s a heartfelt ballad about Princess Peach that fans have come to love.
