New Super Mario Galaxy Movie leaks have given fans a possible first look at an iconic game location, as well as a glimpse at a new villain for the moustachioed plumber to go up against.

Fresh off the Old Spice leaks – which gave the first indication that the Mario sequel would indeed be a Super Mario Galaxy adaptation – a box of Pillsbury cookies have revealed another Yoshi render, as well as the inclusion of Super Mario Galaxy's Cosmic Observatory.

Yoshi was hinted at in the Super Mario Movie post-credits scene, but this is the best look yet at the lovable green dino. His pose with Mario on the back of the Pillsbury box even matches the box art from Super Mario Galaxy 2, which is a neat touch – and suggests the sequel will be rammed full of references and nods, just like the original. As a reminder: we found 85 Super Mario Movie Easter eggs last time out. How about a round 100 this time?

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie hits cinemas on April 3, 2026.
