We finally get our first look at Super Mario Bros. The Movie. After long months of waiting, the first images of this production by the studio come to light illumination (Minions, Despicable Me), in association with Nintendo. Will he manage to convince the most loyal fans of the character? Here we present the trailer, the actors who will give voice to the characters and everything you need to know.
What will the movie be about?
So far there are no specific details of the story. It is rumored that the actors even did various dubbing so that the studio could keep the tone of the story a secret. However, a few months ago there were certain leaks about what we will see on the tape. There is talk of a very colorful animation, full of life and spectacular settings for fans of video games. Some refer that it will be very in the style of Transylvania hotel and with a story full of references to video game fans. It is also said that in the tape we will follow Mario and Luigi through an underground maze to rescue a princess who has been captured.
The cast
This was one of the aspects that generated the most doubts among the fans of the character. During years, Charles Martinet he has lent his voice to Mario and has become everyone’s favorite. Unfortunately, on this tape he was replaced by chris pratt. The news was not very well received by many, because even though Pratt is one of the most famous actors in the industry, many were waiting for the original voice.
“I worked very closely with the directors, I tried a few things and we landed on something that I am very proud of. I can’t wait for people to see and hear it. It is a voice for an animated narrative. Is not a live-action. I’m not going to wear a plumber’s suit and I’m not going to run everywhere. I’m voicing an animated character, it’s updated and it won’t be like anything you’ve heard in the world of Mario,” Pratt explained to Variety.
Next to it are the English version Anya Taylor-Joy like princess peach Charlie Day like the iconic Luigi, Seth Rogen in the role of Donkey Kong, Jack Black like Bowser, Keegan-Michael Key like Toad and Sebastian Maniscalco like Spike. The already mentioned Martinet will appear on the tapebut giving voice to several characters that will appear through cameos.
What can we expect from the tape?
As a good video game brought to the big screen, fans are afraid that it will be a bad experience. It would not be the first time that an adaptation of this type ended in disastrous results. Expectations are very high, as Mario is a video game icon, and seeing him in a movie will be a very special opportunity.
The animation is co-directed by Michael Jelenic (Teen Titans Go!) Y aaron horvath (Teen Titans Go! to the movies), based on a script written by Matthew Fogel (Minions: A Villain is Born)
For those who still have doubts about the choice of Pratt as the main voice, he is the CEO of Illumination, Chris Meledandri who gives the final verdict (via).
“When people hear Chris Pratt’s performance, the criticism is going to evaporate. Maybe not entirely, people love expressing their opinions, just as they should. We did cover the accent in the movie, so you’ll definitely see some connection, but isn’t that the most important issue of his performance?
