Okay, so let’s dive into this. You’ve got NBC Universal doing their big honking presentation, right? And surprise, surprise, they drop a juicy tidbit for us Nintendo geeks. The next Mario flick’s got a name! Did they call it Super Mario Bros 4? Nah, they went with “Super Mario World.” I mean, come on, how classic Mario is that?
But here’s the kicker: this news came out during the NBC Universal upfront—because, well, they’re the big boss over at Illumination, the folks who make our beloved animated Mario adventures. So there it was, sandwiched amongst a bunch of other movies about robots, dragons, and who-knows-what-else.
Seriously, check out this lineup they presented: something about Megan 2.0 (is she an upgrade?), a sequel to Nobody (love that movie), Bad Guys 2, and oh yeah, a grand finale for Downton Abbey—imagine that. Plus, the usual suspects: Shrek, Minions, all hanging out together in this announcement.
And this new Mario movie? Penciled in for April 3. They just casually dropped it in their 2025-26 schedule. Mark your calendars, folks, because it seems like we’re in for yet another adventure through the Mushroom Kingdom. Can’t wait to see what shenanigans Mario, Luigi, and the gang get into this time.
