Super Mario Bros. Movie trailer release date is here — with the Chris Pratt film getting its own Nintendo Direct event. On Tuesday, Nintendo announced an exclusive presentation for the hotly-awaited animated film made by Illumination Entertainment, best known for the Despicable Me franchise. The event will be live across Nintendo's official YouTube channels on October 7 at 1:35am IST in India /October 6 at 1:05am PT in the US. As part of the promotion, Nintendo also dropped a Super Mario Bros. movie poster, starring the titular video game icon.
The presentation will solely be focused on The Super Mario Bros. Movie, promising a world premiere trailer, with no information on Nintendo games. The poster functions as the first look at its art style — fully CGI, reminiscent of other Illumination projects. Plot details are under wraps, but judging by the image, we could assume it follows Mario's usual charades, which involve running past obstacles, facing adversaries in the form of Bowser, and ultimately, rescuing Princess Peach. In the poster, we are treated to the bustling Toad town, floating islands akin to the Mario Galaxy games, and Peach's castle at the top. Upon closer inspection, you'll also notice the green-tinted pipes that have become synonymous with Mario games.
