Following the monumental success of The Tremendous Mario Bros. Filmit appears Nintendo and Common are eager to broaden on its new enterprise past the upcoming sequel in 2026.
As reported by Nintendo Every parta new copyright submitting has been noticed that’s merely listed as ‘Untitled Donkey Kong Mission ;Movement image’. The date of recordation is sixth June 2025, with two dates listed because the execution: ninth Might and seventeenth Might 2025.
Now, are we completely positive that this pertains to a brand new film starring Donkey Kong? No. However on condition that it is listed as a ‘movement image’ and it is from each Nintendo and Common leads us to consider that possibly a spin-off starring DK is in very early pre-production (or if not pre-production, then early discussions, at the very least).
Nintendo presently has two film tasks formally within the works. The primary is a direct sequel to the Mario Film – rumoured to be titled ‘Tremendous Mario World’ – scheduled for launch on third April 2026. The second is a Legend of Zelda live-action film scheduled for launch on seventh Might 2027.
It is doubtless, then, that if a Donkey Kong film is certainly within the works, then we in all probability will not be seeing it for just a few years but. Chances are high, nonetheless, that Nintendo will likely be eager to retain the voice expertise from the Mario Film. Seth Rogan voiced DK himself and Fred Armisen voicing Cranky Kong.
It appears to be like like we’re seeing the beginning of a ‘Mario Cinematic Universe’, of us – or ‘MCU’ for brief. We’re sure that will not trigger any confusion… Possibly ‘Nintendo Cinematic Universe’ is best.
