As of March 2026, there is no official announcement or confirmation from Nintendo or Illumination Entertainment regarding a film titled "The Super Mario Galaxy Movie." The 2023 animated film "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" was a major box office success, but its creators have not revealed specific plans for a sequel.
In recent statements, Illumination founder Chris Meledandri has confirmed the studio is actively developing another project with Nintendo. However, this project is not a direct Mario sequel but is instead based on the popular "The Legend of Zelda" franchise, as reported by multiple entertainment news outlets.
Nintendo's film strategy appears focused on carefully adapting its iconic properties one at a time. While a follow-up to the Mario movie is widely expected by industry analysts, its plot, title, and release timeline remain unconfirmed. Any speculation about a "Super Mario Galaxy" plot is purely fan-driven at this stage.
