Mark your calendars and set those alarms, because Nintendo just dropped some exciting news that’s about to make your week a whole lot brighter. This Wednesday, November 12th, 2025, we’re finally getting what we’ve all been waiting for: the first full-length trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.
If you’re wondering when exactly you need to have your eyes glued to the screen, here’s the breakdown: 6am PST, 9am EST, or 2pm GMT. Nintendo’s going all out with a dedicated Nintendo Direct presentation just for this reveal, and honestly? That alone tells you how big of a deal this sequel is shaping up to be.
The wait is almost over
Let’s be real—we’ve been operating on crumbs since that brief teaser dropped during September’s Nintendo Direct. Sure, it confirmed the official title and got everyone hyped, but beyond that? We’ve been left wondering what Illumination and Nintendo have been cooking up behind the scenes. The only other concrete detail we have is the theatrical release date: April 3rd, 2026. That might seem far away, but this Wednesday’s trailer should give us our first real taste of what’s coming.
The YouTube premiere is already set up and ready to go, so you won’t have to scramble to find it when the time comes. Just settle in, grab your morning coffee (or energy drink, no judgment), and prepare to see what the sequel to 2023’s box office phenomenon has in store.
Join us on Wednesday, Nov 12, at 6am PT for the Nintendo Direct featuring the world premiere of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie official trailer. Please note that no game information will be included in this presentation.

What we know, and what we’re dying to see)
The original Super Mario Bros. Movie absolutely crushed it at the box office back in 2023, proving that video game adaptations can not only work but dominate when done right. Now, with the sequel officially titled The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, expectations are through the roof.
And speaking of expectations—there’s been some interesting buzz floating around. Earlier today, a certain character design may have leaked for the second time. We’re not naming names here, but come on, you know exactly which lovable green dinosaur we’re talking about. If that leak holds any water, Wednesday’s trailer might just confirm what we’re all hoping to see.
This isn’t just another movie announcement. This is Nintendo pulling out all the stops to show us they’re serious about expanding the Mario cinematic universe. A dedicated Direct for a movie trailer? That’s the kind of treatment usually reserved for major game announcements. It shows they know what they’ve got, and they want to make sure we’re all watching when they unveil it.
So clear your schedule for Wednesday morning (or afternoon, depending on where you are), because this is one premiere you won’t want to miss. The first proper look at The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is almost here, and if the original film was any indication, we’re in for something special.
