After the blockbuster success of The Super Mario Bros. Movie, excitement has been building for its sequel. While official details have been scarce, a recent accidental leak might have just revealed the film’s title—and it’s a nostalgic one for longtime fans.
🕹️ Super Mario World May Be the Official Sequel Title

In a press release by NBCUniversal, a slate of upcoming films was listed, including titles like:
- Megan 2.0
- Nobody 2
- Bad Guys 2
- How to Train Your Dragon (live-action reboot)
- Shrek
- Super Mario World
Shortly after publication, the title “Super Mario World” was quietly removed from the press release, strongly suggesting it was revealed ahead of schedule. While not officially confirmed by Nintendo or Illumination, this slip strongly hints at what’s in store.
🌍 What Could “Super Mario World” Mean for the Sequel?
The title Super Mario World isn’t just a name, it’s a beloved SNES classic. If the movie leans into the game’s themes, fans could expect:
- 🎢 New environments like Dinosaur Land
- 🐉 The introduction of Yoshi
- 🌋 More boss battles and expansive, fantastical settings
- 🏰 Possibly a bigger role for Bowser’s army
Given the first film’s massive box office performance, it’s no surprise that Nintendo and Universal would want to raise the stakes and expand the universe.
⏳ When Will We Know More?
No official release date or story synopsis has been shared, but production is ongoing. With the accidental leak now making waves online, an official announcement could come sooner rather than later, especially if Nintendo decides to reveal more during a future Nintendo Direct.
Stay tuned—this mushroom-fueled adventure is just getting started!
