"It's an ambitious task," Meledandri told Variety. "The challenge is taking things that are so thin in their original form and finding depth that doesn't compromise what generations of fans love about Mario, but also feels organic to the iconography and can support a three-act structure."

In addition, Meledandri's new film The Grinch, based on the Dr. Seuss story, is in theaters now.
