Sonic the Hedgehog director wants to make another Smash Bros. movie

The success of the Sonic the Hedgehog series of movies seems to have broken the curse of video game adaptations being hard to succeed. Recently, the film's director Jeff Fowler said in an interview that he is very interested in another industry masterpiece.

Jeff Fowler said that if he had the opportunity to shoot a "Super Smash Bros." movie, he would definitely go all out. The "Super Smash Bros." series has been known for its multiverse melee involving multiple game characters since 1999, and Sonic the Hedgehog has also joined the ranks since 2008.

Fowler said: "I would be so happy if I could put these characters together for a battle royale. Let Mario and Sonic fight together in the movie. Everyone must think this is a series that will be in their lifetime, right? It's too classic." Of course, Nintendo is not a role that is so easy to give up. In addition to Nintendo and Sega, the Super Smash Bros. series also includes Bandai Namco, Capcom, and Square Enix. If you really want to make such a movie, the legal work required is unprecedented, but as long as it can be realized, Fowler will be very willing to shoot it.

Nowadays, cross-border collaboration is very common, and movies, TV and games will take care of each other. Maybe "Super Smash Bros." will also be able to achieve this in the near future. We might as well keep this expectation.
