The list of confirmed Nintendo characters in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is expanding rapidly, but one pair of much requested villains are still solidly in the “maybe” category, as stars Chris Pratt (Mario) and (Charlie Day) refuse to confirm or deny whether Wario and Waluigi will show up.
Pratt and Day appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon to promote the impending release of the animated sequel. For part of their appearance, they play a game in which Fallon runs through several fan theories surrounding The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, passing Pratt and Day a buzzer with a golden coin box to confirm the rumor, and a red shell to deny it.

The pair answer several questions including whether there will be a “third Mario brother” (denied); whether the movie will return to Brooklyn (confirmed); whether there will be a sequence in 8-bit animation (confirmed); whether a non-Mario character will appear, which we already know is happening with Star Fox’s Fox McCloud.
However, the one question they couldn’t confirm or deny is whether Mario and Luigi’s villainous doppelgangers Wario and Waluigi will appear in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, with Day and Pratt simultaneously pressing both the shell and the coin box. That’s clearly a spoiler line the stars don’t want to cross, but let’s be real… If there was no trace of Wario or Waluigi in the movie, or if they wanted it to be a complete surprise, they could have simply denied it.
Instead, they used the gimmick of the segment to continue building suspense around the fan-favorite anti-Mario duo, which is probably a more fun choice than pulling a Marvel move and having them deny it entirely only to show up anyway.
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie releases in theaters on April 1. For everything else coming soon, check out our guide to all the upcoming movies in 2026 and beyond.
