The Super Mario Bros. Movie (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack to the 2023 film of the same name, based on Nintendo's Mario video game franchise. The original score for the film is composed by Brian Tyler, who incorporated and remixed the original themes from longtime Mario composer Koji Kondo under his collaboration. According to Tyler, he wanted to "incorporate the music that I heard in that 8-bit form and along the way bring it into the world of a big epic, emotional film score." This resulted in partly original music that referenced several leitmotifs from various Mario games as well as themes from Donkey Kong.[1]

Recording sessions for the film began in October 2022 at the Eastwood Scoring Stage at Warner Bros.[2] and sound mixing happened at Skywalker Sound in California. The album featured most of Tyler's original score along with two songs for the film, which includes "Peaches" performed by Jack Black as Bowser, released as a digital single. The album was released on April 7, 2023, by Back Lot Music, two days after the film. It will be also released in CD, vinyl and cassettes via iam8bit.[3]

The score received critical acclaim from critics, who praised its production and Tyler's use of Kondo's themes.
