For the first time, the iconic global entertainment brands Illumination and Nintendo join forces to create 'The Super Mario Bros. Movie', a new, big-screen adventure starring one of pop culture’s most prominent plumbers of the past four decades.
Based on the world of Nintendo’s Mario games, the film invites audiences into a vibrant, thrilling new universe unlike any created before in an action-packed, exuberant cinematic comedy event.
While working underground to fix a water main, Brooklyn plumbers Mario (CHRIS PRATT; 'Jurassic World' and 'The LEGO Movie' franchises) and brother Luigi (CHARLIE DAY; 'It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia') are transported down a mysterious pipe and wander into a magical new world. But when the brothers are separated, Mario embarks on an epic quest to find Luigi.
With the assistance of a Mushroom Kingdom resident Toad (KEEGAN-MICHAEL KEY; 'The Lion King') and some training from the strong-willed ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom, Princess Peach (ANYA TAYLOR-JOY;'The Queen’s Gambit'), Mario taps into his own power.
