We don’t know exactly what to expect from the trailer yet, but fingers crossed that we’ll finally get to hear Chris Pratt’s Mario voice.
The movie, which was delayed from a holiday 2022 release to April 7th, 2023, has an absolutely wild cast. In addition to Pratt, it includes:
- Anya Taylor-Joy as Peach
- Charlie Day as Luigi
- Jack Black as Bowser
- Keegan-Michael Key as Toad
- Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong
- Kevin Michael Richardson as Kamek
- Fred Armisen as Cranky Kong
- Sebastian Maniscalco as Spike
- And Charles Martinet, who has voiced Mario and other characters in many Mario games, will be voicing “surprise cameos”
With Nintendo recently announcing plans to acquire a CG production company that it will rename to “Nintendo Pictures,” the Mario movie may not be the only animated adaptation we can look forward to.
