Last week, it was announced that we would be getting a Super Mario Bros. animated film, and the voice cast was announced alongside it! Chris Pratt will voice the titular Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy will voice Princess Peach, and Charlie Day will voice Luigi.
Almost immediately, the internet was UP IN ARMS about these casting choices...
So, here are some of the funniest reactions to this casting announcement:
3.
modern italixn stories are told so rarely and even when they are we're not the ones telling them
4.
didn’t realize the mario movie is animated. was really hoping to see a-list celebs have to act in mario costumes from spirit halloween
5.
The ripple effect of the Mario movie casting will be far greater than any of us foresaw https://t.co/FGDPozeTyx
6.

7.
the mario movie just isn’t realistic. how is peach supposed to be in love with chris pratt when jack black is right there
8.
The black and white image makes it look like this is a memorial for Chris Pratt, with his last words being "Mario".

First Look at Mario and Yoshi in Super Mario Bros. (2022)
14.
the first look of the mario movie looks insane omg
15.
my objection isn't really to chris pratt per se; my objection is that mario should be treated like the joker where a different prestige actor goes insane trying to get inside his twizted mind every 3 or 4 years
16.
the mario movie looks so good!!!
17.
new scene from mario movie just leaked
18.
BROS > SUPER MARIO BROS. https://t.co/ebsg3i9LEd

What if the Mario movie ends up being a bunch of celebrities playing Mario Party and getting sucked into the game, Jumanji style?
20.
The mario cast should sing imagine
21.
So are we hoping that Chris Pratt tries to do the voice? Or that he just shows up and is like "Yo. What's up? It's me, Mario" ?
22.
That Mario movie ain’t gon have shit on these.
23. In conclusion:
Well now I have to see the Mario movie
