Donald Glover will voice fan-favourite character Yoshi, while Luis Guzmán joins as Wart and Issa Rae as Honey Queen. They join returning and new cast members, including Chris Pratt, Anya Taylor-Joy, Charlie Day and Jack Black.

The film draws inspiration from the much-loved Super Mario Galaxy games, shifting the action into outer space with new worlds, characters and challenges for the iconic plumber. Behind the scenes, the creative team remains largely unchanged, with directors Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic returning, alongside writer Matthew Fogel.
