Potential spoilers for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie follow.
A plot description for the upcoming The Super Mario Galaxy Movie may have given away that an iconic villain from the franchise will feature in the upcoming sequel. The film is scheduled for release next month, with Chris Pratt and Charlie Day returning to voice the brothers.
Per IGN, a new plot description for the movie was posted by UK cinema chain Everyman which read: "After defeating Bowser and saving Brooklyn, Mario faces Wario and Bowser Jr.'s evil alliance. Now, alongside his friends and Yoshi, he must stop their plans for world domination."
Yes Wario.
Previous descriptions had confirmed Mario would be facing off with Bowser Jr., with Benny Safdie cast to voice the villain. But fans have so far only dreamed of Wario making an appearance.

The description has since been removed from the Everyman website, meaning it may have been an error or it could have been a major spoiler.
Jack Black, who voices Bowser, previously said he wants The Mandalorian's Pedro Pascal to lend his voice to Wario.
Speculating on Boswer's fate in future films back in 2023, Black told Deadline: "You know, what if there is a more powerful, more evil villain?
"Then I may need to be turned to help Mario and the rest to defend our universe against some other unseen force of evil. Are you thinking what I’m thinking? Wario. Pedro Pascal is Wario."
Meanwhile, alongside Pratt, Day, and Black, Anya Taylor-Joy will return to voice Princess Peach. Joining the cast along with Safdie is Marvel star Brie Larson as Rosalina.
A trailer released in January gave fans their first look at Yoshi, whose introduction was initially teased in the post-credits scene in the first film.
Eagle-eyed viewer were also able to spot Birdo in the teaser.
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie will be released on 1 April.
