Reggie; Super Mario film is ALSO for a new target group

A Mario movie is coming up and is also intended for a new target group. In February, Nintendo announced that it is going to make a real Super Mario film with Illumination, the company behind the Minions films, and Universal Studios.

Interview IGN Reggie

In an interview with IGN, Reggie Fils-Aime, the director of Nintendo of America, provided extra details. He told IGN that they are still in the talking process, but that Shigery Miyamoto is actively involved in the realization of the story.

Reggie also knows that they are also trying to reach a new target group with the new film

With such a great party as Illumination we know for sure that we will make something that both fans of Mario like, as well as a new audience that is not familiar with the Mario universe.

The Super Mario movie is expected in 2020 so we still have some time to think and talk about it. How do you face it?
