NBCUniversal Shortens Super Mario Galaxy Movie's Theatrical Run to 120 Days

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie hits theaters April 1 and streams on Peacock July 30, 2026—a 120-day exclusivity window. Owning both the film and platform lets NBCUniversal skip licensing deals and move the title directly to streaming. The compressed window reflects post-pandemic studio strategy: use a strong theatrical opener to drive subscription growth immediately.
