A newly released trailer for Nintendo\u2019s upcoming movie, \u201cThe Super Mario Bros. Movie,\u201d heavily featured the voice of Princess Peach, voiced by Anya Taylor-Joy. Long a secondary character in the main franchise, the trailer revealed just how involved Peach would be in Nintendo\u2019s new movie, showcasing scenes where she dons her iconic Mario Kart biker outfit and even wields a halberd, all but ensuring her place as more than just a princess in another castle.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The trailer, which also featured the first glimpses of Seth Rogen\u2019s Donkey Kong and Charlie Day\u2019s Luigi, showcased Princess Peach as she rallied the Mushroom Kingdom to fight against Jack Black\u2019s Bowser, culminating in a scene where she and other notable Mario characters raced on a track reminiscent of the Mario Kart series\u2019 famous Rainbow Road.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The trailer, viewers\u2019 second glimpse at the upcoming film, also addressed many fans\u2019 questions<\/a>, and appeared to show that the film would take major inspiration from many of the games. Multiple enemies from the series\u2019s deep roster of villains appeared, like the Bullet Bill, and several power-ups were shown, like the Tanooki suit. In one sequence, Princess Peach assumes the powers of the fire flower, replacing her pink color scheme with the series\u2019 emblematic fire flower colors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The first trailer for the film received major criticism for the titular character\u2019s performance. Fans are still torn whether actor Chris Pratt\u2019s performance captures the magic of Nintendo\u2019s biggest icon. Initial reactions to Taylor-Joy\u2019s Peach (including ours) appear to be more favorable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Nintendo\u2019s \u201cThe Super Mario Bros. Movie\u201d is slated for release April 7, 2023.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
