I know it’s been nine months, but I’m honestly still upset by the announcement that Chris Pratt will voice Mario in the upcoming Mario movie. How on earth is this going to sound???
Pratt, at least, looks like it’s going to be something special. “I actually worked closely with the directors and tried a few things and it turned out to be something I’m really proud of and can’t wait for people to see and hear,” Pratt said in an interview.

The Mario movie was supposed to release in December, but was recently delayed. It will now debut in North America on April 7th and in Japan on April 28th. The cast also includes Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach, Charlie Day as Luigi, and Jack Black as Bowser. While Martinet is not starring as Mario, he will appear in a “surprise cameo”.
