Anya Taylor-Joy Super Mario Galaxy Kyoto: A Dior “Cherry Blossom” Dream at the World Premiere
The Anya Taylor-Joy Super Mario Galaxy Kyoto world premiere at the Minamiza Theater officially launched the sequel into the stratosphere. While the earlier Tokyo photocall was a playful take on “Peach on Vacation,” the actress transitioned into high-glamour “Prestige Peach” for the red carpet, wearing a breathtaking custom Dior Haute Couture gown that perfectly matched the spring season in Japan.
The structured, bell-shaped mini dress featured intricate, hand-applied floral embellishments that mirrored the cherry blossoms (Sakura) currently in bloom. Fashion critics have already dubbed the Anya Taylor-Joy Super Mario Galaxy Kyoto look a “10/10,” noting that the whimsical silhouette captures the outer-space theme of the movie while honoring the traditional setting.
Brie Larson and the Star-Studded Galactic Ensemble
Joining the celebration was Brie Larson, who officially joins the franchise as Princess Rosalina. Larson leaned into her character’s “Star Mother” persona with a shimmering, celestial-themed gown that provided the perfect visual contrast to the floral aesthetic.
The full voice cast was present for the April 1, 2026 launch, including:
-
Chris Pratt (Mario)
-
Charlie Day (Luigi) and Jack Black (Bowser)
-
Donald Glover (Yoshi) and Benny Safdie (Bowser Jr.)
The premiere also celebrated the surprising “Smash Bros.” direction the sequel is taking, featuring the recently confirmed Fox McCloud cameo voiced by Glen Powell.
The Anya Taylor-Joy Nintendo Museum Visit
Earlier in the week, the cast visited the newly opened Nintendo Museum, where the “method dressing” trend continued with a 90s-inspired denim look that went viral across social media. This visit to the company’s roots added a layer of authenticity to the Anya Taylor-Joy Super Mario Galaxy Kyoto press leg.
With a runtime of 98 minutes, the movie is tracking to beat the $1.3 billion record set by the first film. For fans tracking the rest of the spring blockbusters, don’t miss our guide to the The Devil Wears Prada 2 Global Tour stops.
