### Returning Creative Team and Release Strategy

Following the massive box office success of *The Super Mario Bros. Movie* (2023), which grossed over $1.3 billion worldwide, the stakes are high for this sequel. To ensure consistent quality, the original creative team is back on board:

– Directors: Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic
– Screenwriter: Matthew Fogel
– Composer: Brian Tyler
– Producers: Chris Meledandri (Illumination) and Shigeru Miyamoto (Nintendo)

The animation style remains consistent with the first film, and Illumination and Nintendo have opted to release the film in the same April window as the original one, a strategic decision to capitalize on their previous success rather than shifting to more competitive summer or fall seasons.
