The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has arrived on our screens, and it features some pretty huge cameos. From the introduction of Fox McCloud to some more niche arrivals, the brains behind the new video game movie have revealed that Mario creator – and the film's producer – Shigeru Miyamoto was their barometer for every one of their choices.
Speaking to Rolling Stone, producer Chris Meledandri discussed the arrival of Star Fox in this context, explaining his inclusion came from wanting there to be surprises in the movie. He explained: "It’s less about a crossover and it’s more about an element coming into the movie that the audience will be delighted by because of their own previous association with the characters."
