Following the success of The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Illumination is reportedly pitching Nintendo an Avengers-style Super Smash Bros. film. Illumination, an animation studio under the Universal Studios umbrella, is the same team behind Mario's super-successful 2023 feature film. Despite mixed reviews, The Super Mario Bros. Movie was a massive success at the box office, where it became the highest-grossing video game movie of all time. It's not just successful by video game adaptation standards, either; The Super Mario Bros. Movie is simply one of the highest-grossing animated films ever made and Illumination's highest-grossing project to date.
