If you’ve been wondering lately whether we’re living in the worst timeline, it’s possible this next announcement won’t help. Chris Pratt is voicing Nintendo’s Mario in a new Super Mario Bros. animated movie out next year.
Yes, that Chris, the one Mark Ruffalo doesn’t want you to be mean to on Twitter. But even if you think he’s the “worst Chris” and should be replaced in the Pantheon of Chrises by Chris Messina, Nintendo clearly loves Marvel’s Star-Lord, Parks and Recreation‘s Andy Dwyer, and Jurassic World‘s Owen Grady if the company wants him to be the voice of its most iconic character (and arguably the most recognizable figure in video game history). That must have been one hell of an audition.
“Each voice actor was cast for their ability to capture the unique spirit of their character,” said Nintendo in a press release.
