With less than a month until the movie’s release this April, Nintendo has announced that the 3rd Super Mario Galaxy Movie Direct will be livestreamed on March 9th, just before Mario Day on March 10th.

During this new presentation, the final trailer for the movie will be revealed. As usual, there will be comments from Shigeru Miyamoto and Chris Meledandri of Illumination, and possibly a message from some of the cast members.

And as with all previous Nintendo Directs dedicated to the Mario movies, there will be no game information revealed during the presentation, which will be entirely dedicated to the Super Mario Galaxy Movie.

This third and final Super Mario Galaxy Movie Direct will be livestreamed on March 9th at the following time:

Europe: 10PM
UK: 9PM
North America (ET): 5PM
North America (PT): 2PM
Japan: 6AM (March 10th)

Here’s an embed of the YouTube livestream:

And don’t forget that you can also watch this Nintendo Direct directly (ahem!) via the Nintendo Today! app on smart devices, either live or as a recording.

This post will be updated with the recording of the presentation and any additional information once the Direct is over.

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie comes out on April 1st in most countries/regions and on April 24th in Japan.
