The First Teaser Trailer For The Super Mario Bros Movie Is Here
The first teaser for The Super Mario Bro. Movie is here, and it doesn't tell us much. We'll have to see what happens when it is released on April 7, 2022.
In a move that still feels like it's about twenty years too late and a little cursed, we are getting an animated Super Mario Bros. movie next year. The fact that it has taken this long is really kind of inexcusable, but here we are. This movie has already been the butt of many jokes due to the casting of Chris Pratt as Mario, and Nintendo did a very short Nintendo Direct and a panel at New York Comic Con to show off the movie. It will drop this spring, and animated films released in April tend to do pretty well. As for the teaser trailer?
Well, unsurprisingly, Mario sounds exactly like Chris Pratt, so if we were expecting him to do anything fun with the voice, then we aren't getting that. There isn't much else here, and it looks very Illumination. Hopefully, the kids like it, and grown-ass adult fanboys don't try to gatekeep arguably the most recognizable video game character of all time.
