The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Hits Digital After Dominating the 2026 Box Office

The wait is finally over for fans wanting to experience the cosmic scale of Nintendo’s latest cinematic venture from the comfort of home. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is now available to rent or purchase digitally via PVOD platforms like Prime Video.

While the digital release was originally slated for May 5, studios opted to delay the launch—much like they did with the box office hit Project Hail Mary—to capitalize on the film's massive theatrical momentum. It is a strategic move that makes perfect sense given that the Mario Bros sequel currently holds the title of the highest-grossing movie of 2026.

How to Watch The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Online

If you missed the theatrical run or want to hunt for every hidden Easter egg, you can now access the film through digital storefronts. Here is the current pricing breakdown for the digital release:

  • Digital Rental: $24.99 (includes 48 hours of viewing time once playback begins).
  • Digital Purchase: $29.99 (includes over an hour of exclusive behind-the-scenes digital extras).
  • Super Mario Bundle: Prime Video is offering both the original film and this sequel together for $39.99.

The sequel takes the franchise to a galactic scale, introducing a massive new cast to flesh out the universe. Notable additions include Brie Larson as Rosalina and Donald Glover as Yoshi. Perhaps the biggest surprise was Nintendo's decision to hide Glen Powell’s role as Star Fox until the premiere, a move that coincided with the announcement of a Star Fox remake for the Switch 2.

Streaming Date and Physical Media Releases

While critics have noted the sequel doesn't quite hit the same heights as the original, the film has been praised for its sheer spectacle. Reviews have highlighted that the movie is "bigger and shinier," packed with enough Easter eggs to fill the entire runtime.

For those looking ahead to a subscription-based viewing experience, here is what we know regarding the Super Mario Galaxy Movie release schedule:

  • Peacock: Will serve as the first streaming home for the film, though an official date has not been set. Based on previous release patterns, expect it to land later this summer.
  • Netflix: Following a four-month exclusive window on Peacock, the film is expected to migrate to Netflix.
  • Physical Media: 4K, Blu-ray, and DVD versions are scheduled to launch in just over a month.

Collectors should keep an eye out for the limited edition 4K steelbook, which features a design inspired by Rosalina’s Storybook. Whether you are watching digitally or waiting for the physical disc, the cosmic adventure is officially ready for your home library.
