The posters highlight each of the film’s main cast from heroes Mario (Chris Pratt) and Luigi (Charlie Day) plus, of course, the villainous King Koopa (Jack Black). They’re joined by newcomers Princess Rosalina (Brie Larson) and fan-favourite Yoshi who has been taking centre stage in the film’s recent marketing. Look carefully and each of the posters also highlights a different world fans can expect to see when the film hits cinemas later this spring.
