Super Mario Galaxy Movie Rumored Synopsis Reveals 3 New Characters

by

A possible outline of the story for the upcoming Super Mario Galaxy Movie has hinted at three new characters. Fans are eagerly awaiting the sequel to 2023’s Super Mario Bros. Movie, which is set to release next spring. The new animated film, produced by Illumination Entertainment (the studio behind the Despicable Me movies), will expand the adventure into outer space, bringing elements from the Mario Galaxy video games to the big screen.

Although the next big movie is expected to heavily feature the *Galaxy* universe, Nintendo and Illumination have confirmed it will draw elements from throughout the entire *Mario* franchise. Characters like Wario, Rosalina, and Yoshi have been rumored to appear in *The Mario Movie 2*, and we’re now getting a better sense of who is likely to be included.

A recent post from Cinepolis El Salvador, a movie theater chain, appeared to reveal three new characters that will be featured in the upcoming *Super Mario Galaxy Movie*. While promoting the release of the first trailer for the *Mario Movie* sequel, the El Salvadorian theater shared a short, translated summary of the film, which included the names of these three new characters.

Get ready for an epic adventure! Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Yoshi team up to face familiar foes – Wario and Bowser Jr. – in a cosmic battle. Watch the trailer now!

Fans have been hoping to see these characters in *The Super Mario Bros. Movie 2*, and a recent summary suggests their wishes might come true. While Nintendo and Illumination haven’t confirmed the details yet, it’s exciting news for those eager to see some beloved *Mario* characters in the 2026 sequel.

The highly anticipated movie, *The Super Mario Galaxy*, will be released in theaters on April 3, 2026. Created by Illumination Entertainment and Nintendo, the film continues the story of Mario and his friends, taking them on a brand new, exciting adventure to the stars and beyond the familiar Mushroom Kingdom.

The upcoming film, *The Super Mario Galaxy Movie*, features Chris Pratt as Mario, Charlie Day as Luigi, Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach, Jack Black as Bowser, Keegan-Michael Key as Toad, and Michael Richardson as Kamek. You can find more details about the cast here. It’s currently unknown if any actors from the previous film, such as Seth Rogen who played Donkey Kong, will be back for this installment.

The Three New Reported Mario Galaxy Movie Characters

Yoshi

Although it hasn’t been officially announced, many believe Mario’s dinosaur friend will appear in *The Super Mario Galaxy Movie*. Of all the characters rumored to be in the sequel, this one seems most likely to be included.

I was so excited when I saw that little tease at the end of the first movie! It was a Yoshi egg, hidden in the sewers under Mario and Luigi’s Brooklyn apartment. It definitely got me hyped for what was to come – I knew we’d be seeing a cute, scaled buddy join the adventure eventually!

Because Yoshi is a popular character from *Super Mario World*, many fans predicted he would appear in the next *Mario* movie, and some even thought that would be the movie’s title. While that didn’t happen, Yoshi still seems like a natural addition to the successful *Mario* movie series.

Wario

Following the success of the first *Mario* movie, where Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Toad defeated the evil Bowser, people began to wonder how future *Mario* films would handle villains – specifically, whether each movie would always feature the same antagonist.

When Nintendo fans thought of potential rivals for Mario, Wario was a popular choice. He first appeared in *Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3* on the original Game Boy and has often been positioned as one of Mario’s few human opponents, especially in spin-off sports games.

Adding Wario to *The Super Mario Galaxy Movie* could be a smart move. He could act as a contrasting character to Mario, and work with Bowser to try and defeat him.

Bowser Jr.

The plot summary for the upcoming *Mario Galaxy Movie* from Cinepolis El Salvador includes Bowser Jr., a popular villain among fans. Often called Koopa Kid, he’s the mischievous and equally villainous son of Bowser.

Bowser Jr. has appeared in many *Mario* games over the years, like several *Mario Kart* titles and *Mario Sunshine*. But he’s especially important to this discussion because of his roles in *Mario Galaxy 1* and *2*.

Just as introducing Wario in a future *Mario* movie would prevent repeating the Mario versus Bowser storyline, adding Bowser Jr. to a potential *Galaxy* movie could create a fresh dynamic by exploring Bowser’s role as a father.

Additionally, this might bring the Koopalings into the game, giving Mario even more challenging enemies to defeat.
