Super Mario Galaxy Movie Puts Fox McCloud Front and Center in New Teaser

Creator remarks echo Miyamoto's caution about tightly managed crossovers.

Overview

  • The studio released an online sizzle reel that spotlights Fox McCloud and highlights an anime-style sequence from the film.
  • Glen Powell voices Fox in the cameo, a performance widely noted in coverage as a standout element.
  • The movie continues to post strong ticket sales, with about $190 million over its first five days in the U.S. and roughly $370 million worldwide.
  • Star Fox creator Takaya Imamura said he will not see the film ahead of its Japan release, and former Nintendo programmer Giles Goddard said developers historically did not receive free copies of their own games.
  • Shigeru Miyamoto said he expected pushback to adding Fox and urged fans not to expect a large crossover, while Powell previously reached out to Nintendo and Illumination to pursue the role.
