Although in the original video game Yoshi was always present for Mario, in the first movie of this well-known character, the little dinosaur was not included, but recently the doubts were resolved, since the screenwriter has revealed the real reason why he was discarded for ‘Super Mario Bros. The Movie‘.

In a recent interview at Yale University, Matthew Fogel was in charge of explaining several details of the film, such as how the original villain was going to be in this production, in addition to responding to criticism about the fast pace of the story, claiming that they packed 105 minutes of story into the 80-minute duration of the film.

Among these conversations he also revealed the true reason for Yoshi’s absence in this production. Given this, the screenwriter said that it is very difficult to keep children’s attention when a movie lasts more than 90 minutes, so they had to cut the story to a more prudent time.

However, this would not be an easy task because it was about making a script that would maintain the attention of the general public, pay tribute to the character, in addition to having a development with a good balance between emotion and story, a true challenge, which ended up being a complete success.

Due to all these characteristics that they had to maintain in the production, they had to discard this important character from the video game, which could complicate this story even more. So they decided to go on the safe side and leave it for the sequel to this movie, which has already been confirmed.

In a post-credits scene they make an emotional reference to this character, announcing a continuation of this project and the integration of the acclaimed Yoshi.
