The Super Mario Bros. Movie became one of the biggest hits of the year with a box office number surpassing $1.36 billion worldwide. The successful theatrical run means that many have watched the film. However, for those who missed it or those who want to rewatch it, the film is set to premiere on Netflix. As per reports, The Super Mario Bros. Movie is set to premiere on the streaming giant in December 2023.

However, it is worth noting that the film is already available for streaming ahead of its Netflix release date on multiple platforms. The film premiered digitally on these platforms much earlier in 2023. The Super Mario Bros. Movie premiered on Peacock on August 3, 2023, where it is available for streaming to all subscribers.

It is also available for streaming on various rent-based platforms, including Prime Video, Apple TV+, and Vudu, among others. As for Netflix, the film is set to premiere on December 3, 2023.


What does Netflix premiere mean for The Super Mario Bros. Movie?

The release of The Super Mario Bros. Movie on Netflix means an even greater reach to audiences around the globe. As one of the most used streaming platforms in the world, a Netflix release guarantees a greater reach across the entire world. Since Peacock has one of the lowest numbers of subscribers around the world and is only available in the US, the film is harder for many to access.

With a Legend of Zelda live-action film on the way, Nintendo will look forward to pushing its entertainment sector to a higher level. The share prices have already reportedly increased after the announcement in Japan yesterday.
