(after giving it thought, i'm going to just revert to RPG Gamer's revision, just with some stuff reverted, as it would take an excessive amount of work to fill all that in for now (and there's still more pages with broken file links to fix). I'll retain a few for now though)

In December 2014, information leaked that Sony Pictures had made a deal with Nintendo to create an animated film based on the Mario franchise, but it never materialized. In November 2017, it was reported that Nintendo would be teaming up with Universal Pictures and Illumination to make an animated Mario film.
 
However on January 31, 2018 during a financial briefing, [[Nintendo]] announced that [[Illumination]] would be producing an '''animated ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' film''', co-produced by Chris Meledandri and [[Shigeru Miyamoto]]. The title is currently unknown, but the film is scheduled for theatrical release on December 21, 2022 in North America and on an unspecified day in the holiday season of 2022 in the rest of the world. It is the third theatrical film based on the ''Mario'' series, following ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen!]]'' (1986) and ''[[Super Mario Bros. (film)|Super Mario Bros.]]'' (1993).
 
Several days after the deal was made, Miyamoto explained why Illumination was chosen for the project over other animation companies, saying he has been interested in producing an animated film for quite some time, and contrary to popular belief, making a movie and making a game are completely different procedures. Miyamoto wanted someone with experience in the film industry to co-produce the film, and after talking with numerous directors and producers, he was introduced to Illumination through {{wp|Universal Parks & Resorts}}, with whom Nintendo was making [[Super Nintendo World|a theme park]]. Miyamoto also stated that when he begun talks with Meledandri, the latter read numerous interviews about him and felt that they had a similar approach in creation. Miyamoto describes Meledandri as having experience in the field of animation beyond Illumination, being executive producer of ''{{wp|Ice Age (2002 film)|Ice Age}}'' and other animated projects for {{wp|20th Century Fox}}, as well as Meledandri being "extremely cost-conscious and time-conscious in his quest to make successful movies." Miyamoto also mentioned that Nintendo and Illumination have mutually agreed to call the deal off if neither company could think of an interesting premise, but also noted that the screenplay has been hashed out a number of times and talks are in progression, hoping to provide more information once the schedule has been ironed out.
