The Super Mario Bros. Movie has been generating buzz and excitement among fans ever since the release of its first teaser trailer. With the film being co-financed by Universal Pictures and Nintendo, and featuring some of the biggest names in Hollywood lending their voices to iconic characters, it’s no surprise that people are eagerly awaiting its release.
After being delayed from its original Christmas 2022 release date, the film is set to hit theaters later this year. In the meantime, fans have been treated to several Nintendo Directs, which included new trailers and behind-the-scenes glimpses.
One of the most talked-about aspects of the movie has been the “Peaches” song, performed by Jack Black, who voices Bowser in the English version.
Fans were given a taste of the song in the trailers, but it wasn’t until recently that an official video clip was released, showcasing Black performing the song live.
