The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is a certified box office hit, on par with its 2023 predecessor, The Super Mario Bros. Movie. Nintendo and Illumination's new animated Super Mario adventure is sure to have long legs during its theatrical run, and could score another $1 billion showing for the franchise — which is almost assured to get a third entry.

While repeat viewings of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie in theaters will be inevitable for some, both as a way to keep kids entertained and for Nintendo fanatics to discover Easter eggs, rewatching the film at home will be even more important. Studying the film frame by frame will undoubtedly reveal some secrets on par with Fox McCloud's appearance in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.

Nintendo and Illumination haven't announced a home video release for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie just yet, but based on how The Super Mario Bros. Movie rolled out in theaters, then on home video on demand and streaming, we have a pretty good idea of what to expect.

Here's the latest on when The Super Mario Galaxy Movie will be released for home viewing.

When will The Super Mario Galaxy Movie be available to rent or purchase digitally?

The original Super Mario Bros. Movie was released in theaters on April 5, 2023, and was made available for purchase digitally at home on May 16, 2023. That's a 41-day window from its theatrical debut to its digital release. More recent releases from Illumination have had shorter theatrical runs (Migration, 32 days) and longer runs (Despicable Me 4, 69 days), so there isn't an exact date we can extrapolate for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.

Universal Pictures, which is distributing the latest Mario pic, has recently committed to theatrical runs of at least five weekends for its movies, so don't expect The Super Mario Galaxy Movie to come home until the week of May 4 at the earliest. Online retailers like Amazon, Apple, and Fandango already have pre-order pages up, but no release date.

We'll update this story with details on The Super Mario Galaxy Movie home video digital release when new information is available.

When will The Super Mario Galaxy Movie be available on Blu-ray/DVD?

4K Blu-ray and DVD releases of The Super Mario Bros. Movie arrived about one month after its digital home release, so if Universal and Illumination follow a similar strategy, don't expect to see Galaxy come to physical formats until June 2026 if it gets a digital release in May.

Online retailers, including Amazon, Gruv, and Walmart, have pre-order pages for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie on Blu-ray and DVD, but no confirmed release date yet.

When will The Super Mario Galaxy Movie be available to stream on Peacock?

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie will likely stream first on NBCUniversal's Peacock service, just like the previous film. Expect a roughly two-month wait for a Peacock streaming release after Galaxy comes to Blu-ray and DVD. That probably means a late-summer or early-fall streaming debut on Peacock.

Will The Super Mario Galaxy Movie be available to stream on Netflix?

The original Super Mario Bros. Movie did get an eventual Netflix release, as part of a streaming deal between Universal and Netflix. Universal's movies (including those from Illumination and Dreamworks) first stream on Peacock for a four-month window of exclusivity, then go to Netflix for 10 months, then back to Peacock.

If The Super Mario Galaxy Movie arrives on Peacock in August, expect it to drop on Netflix in December. If Galaxy doesn't arrive on Peacock until September or October, however, you'll need to wait until 2027 to watch Mario's new animated feature on Netflix.
