Overview
- Shigeru Miyamoto, in a Crank In interview published Wednesday, said he banned Illumination CEO Chris Meledandri from using dirty jokes in the Mario films.
- He said action works as a shared language for kids and adults, so future movies will rely on clear, fast-moving action scenes rather than crude humor.
- Miyamoto added that this rule does not exclude Wario, noting the character could appear in a later movie without the body-function gags often linked to him.
- He also said The Super Mario Galaxy Movie rebuilt its Japanese dialogue from scratch, aiming for lines that feel natural to local audiences instead of a direct translation.
- Coverage from Nintendo Life, Nintendo Everything, and GamesRadar+ relayed the comments and made clear that Wario is a possibility, not a casting announcement.
