Super Mario Bros: The Movie has done nothing but break records since its theatrical release last year March 31stbecoming the highest-grossing video game adaptation in history -exceeding 500 million dollars grossed worldwide-, rising as the best opening of an animated film and obtaining one of the best scores on Rotten Tomatoes.
The premiere of Super Mario Bros: The Movie could be just the beginning of a Nintendo Cinematic Universeand the success of this film could make the Japanese company less hesitant to face its next audiovisual projects that it has surely already begun to take shape.
What will be the new Nintendo film adaptation?
Shigeru Miyamoto, the world’s most famous video game designer and creator of such important franchises at Nintendo such as The Legend of Zelda or Mariorecently had an interview with the Japanese media Nikkei in which he talked about the future adaptations of video games to the big screen.
As collected from My Nintendo News, Shigeru Miyamoto has ensured that “No doubt“what will we see new nintendo movies in the future.
Unfortunately, it seems that those have been his only statements, and he has not confirmed if they already have any ideas in mind, such as a possible adaptation of The Legend of Zelda or a second delivery of Super Mario Bros: The Movie.
At the beginning of January a rumor arose that pointed to a new work of lighting for Nintendoand it was said that “Hyrule’s greatest hero” would come to the big screen in an animated film made by the study of Los Minions. Nothing is confirmed yet, and the only sure thing is that Super Mario Bros: The Movie is being an unprecedented success.
