The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Sparks Mixed Early Reactions Ahead of April Release
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, a sequel to 2023's blockbuster, held press screenings Monday ahead of its April 1 release.

Reprising core cast (Pratt, Taylor-Joy, Day) with new voices including Issa Rae, Brie Larson and Donald Glover, the film is directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic with a script by Matthew Fogel.
