Donkey Kong is having a moment. This summer, not only did Mario’s original foe get his first theme park ride in the United States, but he’s also got Donkey Kong Bananza, his own mega game coming to Switch 2 later this week, and he might even be getting a movie sometime in the future.

Signs point to an animated film adaptation, which would fit perfectly with Nintendo’s current strategy.

As reported by Vooks, Nintendo and Universal have filed with the US Copyright Office for a project called "Untitled Donkey Kong Project; Motion picture," which as the name suggests seems to be a major motion picture based on Donkey Kong.
