“Mushroom Kingdom, here we come!” That’s right, the official trailer for The Super Mario Bros. Movie is here and we’re all here for it. Produced by Illumination in association with Nintendo, this computer-animated movie is the second film adaptation of the Super Mario franchise (the first one came out in 1993 and received major backlash). This highly anticipated film is scheduled for release in the US on April 7th, 2023.
But while we wait to see this adaptation on the big screen, there’s something everyone seems to be talking about since the trailer came out. You already know what we’re talking about… Mario’s voice accent–or lack of–in the movie. Before we get into how you can do your own Super Mario voice online with your friends, let’s take a look at who our new Mario voice actor is and what all the hype is about.
The Super Mario Bros Movie stars none other than Chris Pratt as Mario voice actor. We all know the amazing work of Chris Pratt: Jurassic World, Guardians of the Galaxy, Avengers, Passenger, The Lego Movie, the list goes on and on. But post-trailer release for Super Mario, the choice in casting has been called into question. It’s safe to say, the debate around casting Pratt for Mario has nothing to do with the actor’s talent. It’s more so around the fact that this new Mario has lost his classic Italian, falsetto accent that the original Mario is known for.
That would be Charles Martinet, the voice actor who also gave life to other characters in the Super Mario universe, like Mario’s brother, Luigi.
While the debate continues around casting Christ Pratt as Mario, with arguments both for and against the choice in actor, one thing’s for sure: Mario is an irreplaceable, iconic character that has brought so much joy to gamers, creators, and fans all over the world.
