The first trailer for the Super Mario movie starring Chris Pratt as Mario will be released on October 6 as part of New York Comic Con. The trailer will premiere that day at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET.
This will be a “teaser” trailer for the animated film, so don’t expect anything too lengthy. But in any event, it’ll be the first footage from the film to debut. The movie was produced by Illumination, the studio behind Minions and Despicable Me.
The Mario movie is directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic, who previously collaborated on the animated Teen Titans Go films. The Lego Movie 2 and Minions: The Rise of Gru writer Matthew Fogel wrote the script for the movie, which is produced by Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto and Illumination’s Chris Meledandri.
