Ben Morsberger
Ben Morsberger’s film credits pack a punch, honestly. First up, you’ve got The Super Mario Bros. Movie from 2023—yeah, that one, the massive animated hit that had everyone and their grandma humming the theme song again. It’s not just nostalgia bait; the movie actually managed to pull off the impossible and made Mario cool for a whole new generation. The voice cast was stacked, the visuals were wild, and the story? Pure energetic chaos, with Princess Peach not just waiting to be saved but actually kicking some Koopa tail herself. Morsberger’s involvement? It’s the kind of work that gets your name floating around Hollywood.
Then there’s Baby Invasion, which dropped in 2024. People expected a typical family flick, but nope—it got weird, in the best way possible. Imagine a world suddenly overrun by super-intelligent infants (yep, you read that right), plotting world domination. Morsberger helped deliver a script full of zany twists, slapstick comedy, and those sneaky emotional gut punches that leave you laughing and then suddenly feeling things. The film’s got that cult-classic vibe, and if you’re into offbeat comedy with a surprising heart, it’s a wild ride.
Don’t forget Giants Being Lonely from 2019. It’s a whole different beast—quiet, moody, raw. A coming-of-age drama set against the backdrop of small-town baseball, it’s less about sports and more about what happens when you’re lost in your own head. It’s haunting, beautifully shot, and honestly, kind of sticks with you long after the credits roll. Morsberger brings a grounded sensibility to the table, showing he’s not just about the laughs or the spectacle, but the real, messy, complicated stuff too.
