NIntendo

This is not the first time that a project of animated adaptation of Mario to the cinema has been mentioned.

And no, we're not talking about the cursed 1993 movie starring Bob Hoskins and Dennis Hopper.

It was in 2017, and several sources (

Variety, Wall Street Journal

) relayed a rumor that Nintendo would team up with the Illumination studio (

Me, ugly and bad, The Minions

) to bring their mascot to the big screen.

It's now official, well almost, since the project is cited in a document intended for investors, with even a release date.

Finally a year: 2022. It remains to see the first images, the first designs, and hope that they do not make us a "Sonic".

Nintendo has released a document intended for its investors where we learn that the film Mario by Illumination will indeed be released in 2022 and other "visual" projects (I imagine TV series and films) are planned for 2023 and beyond. of the !


A little Zelda movie would be cool!

This film would also be the first and not the last, because the same document speaks of an “expansion of visual content” from 2023… and beyond!

What other Nintendo heroes and heroines would you see on the big screen?

Apart from Link, because a

Zelda

movie

is of course an obligation.

Cinema

Why "Artemis Fowl" has all the assets to become the new Harry Potter

Culture

"Hyrule Warriors", a Zelda geared towards action and mass destruction
