Charles Martinet, the long-time voice of Mario, is retiring from voicing Nintendo's most popular character.
This surprising news comes just a few months after Chris Pratt redefined Mario’s voice in the absurdly popular, which made a billion or so at the box office and is one of what seems to be only three or four movies that haven’t underperformed at the box office so far in 2023.
Is Pratt’s less, uh, ethnic take on the most famous Italian man in games going to be the reference guide for future Mario voice actors? Is Pratt himself going to start popping up in Mario games with the same, um, understated performance that proved so controversial for the movie? We’ve got no idea, folks. We’re just speculating irresponsibly to pad out a news post based on a single tweet. You know, some serious internet journalism.
