“I’m not afraid! I’ll do anything for my brother!” Universal and Illumination Animation have unveiled the final official trailer for the epic animated Super Mario Bros. Movie, dropping into theaters worldwide in one month. This is looking better and better the more we get to see. This movie is produced by Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto with Illumination’s CEO Chris Meledandri. A plumber named Mario travels through an underground labyrinth with his brother, Luigi, trying to save a captured princess. Featuring the voices of Chris Pratt as Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach, Charlie Day as Luigi, Jack Black as Bowser (perfect), Keegan-Michael Key as Toad, Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong, Fred Armisen as Cranky Kong, Kevin Michael Richardson as Kamek, and Sebastian Maniscalco as Spike. The rainbow road battle sequence (a la Mad Max) at the end of this trailer is awesome – it’s clear why they chose to show this in the final trailer. Bring it on, Mario & Luigi! One of my most anticipated spring releases – a must see in theaters.
Here’s the final official trailer (+ two posters) for The Super Mario Bros. Movie, direct from YouTube:
