Wreck-It Ralph, a 3D computer-animated Disney movie due out Nov. 2, will feature cameos from the gaming world’s most-beloved bad guys.

Although the star-studded comedic film stars the 9-foot, 643-pound video game character Ralph, be on the lookout for villains from Super Mario Bros., Mortal Kombat, Sonic, Mega Man, Street Fighter and other classics.

Wreck-It Ralph will be Disney’s 52nd animated flick. It tells the story of an 8-bit miscreant who after decades of mischief-making wants to turn his life around and become a role model.

“He takes matters into his own massive hands and sets off on a game-hopping journey across the arcade through every generation of video games to prove he’s got what it takes to be a hero,” Disney says in the synopsis for the movie, which features voiceovers from John C. Reilly, Jane Lynch, Jack McBrayer and Sarah Silverman.
