Super Mario Bros. Movie Stars Discuss Who Should Play Wario In Possible Sequel

Either DeVito or Martinet as Wario. There are no other choices

Nah, Charles Martinet is Wario. BUT if they absolutely had to get a celebrity to voice him, which they 100% will, I think Danny DeVito would be a decent choice.

Jim Carrey is Waluigi.

Wario would need to be some sort of protective father figure to a child for Pedro Pascal to play him.

Plus Wario isn’t more evil than Bowser, his origin is that he’s a greedy, jealous rival of Mario’s.

i just watched the lego movie and the main character kinda sounds like mario

"You know, what if there is a more powerful, more evil villain? Then I may need to be turned to help Mario and the rest to defend our universe against some other unseen force of evil."

That sounds too much like one of the classic Mario RPG games, Nintendo would never. That's WAY too much fun.

Eh, I personally don't like Wario and Waluigi.
They look terrible in my opinion.

Let Martinet voice Wario, he showed in WarioWare Gold he can voice actual sentences and partake in conversations. I'm sure he had a blast voicing him for that game.

Waluigi should be voiced by whoever is voicing Dick Dastardly, if he has any voice right now.

I 100% agree Martinet should be the voice of Wario (and Waluigi) for any sequels. But I'm not sure how big of a role either would get, relatively speaking they are pretty small characters in the Mario universe. Bowser Jr, Rosalina, Yoshi (if a spoken role) and Daisy would probably occupy bigger screen presences.

I just want more WarioWare games............... sniff

Charles Martinet should voice Wario(WarioWare Gold has proven, they can do a fully voiced Wario), but if they continue the celebrity focus on the sequel of Super Mario bros movie, they should have Danny Devito voice Wario

I want Charles, Pedro, or Danny to play as warriors, i think one of these three would be perfect, of course Charles being the most preferable, because I really would want to hear the original voice.

What?! Obviously the best choice for Wario is Gary Oldman.

Obviously it has to be Elon Musk.

I think the ideal way to handle Wario and Waluigi in the movie continuity is having them be a rival plumbing company to Mario and Luigi, trying to piggyback off their success and reputations by ripping off their identities in search of money. I think it'd work well enough

@Anti-Matter
Why, Wario is one of Nintendo’s best characters. He’s also got some of the most personality in the Mario series

I swear these interviews are generated by AI. There’s just no tenable link between Pedro Pascal and Wario other than just the fact that he’s le grand fromage of Hollywood right now. Might as well just say that you want Paul Mescal as Yoshi.

@wHeReArEtHeChEeToS
I prefer Mario & Luigi for having more appealing looking for me than Wario & Waluigi.

@SpaceboyScreams yess he fits his character so well!

mr krabs voice actor should do it

ugh hell no not pedro weeb pascal again that guy couldn't beat a sack of potatoes in acting school.

Joe Pesci is the only man for the job

@Drmarioland i would pre-order any nintendo movie if it has any devito in it voicing any character.

No offence but Pedro wouldn't fit as Wario he wouldn't have voice for him I say Danny devito will fit more in the role.

Danny devito and Mike Patton (yes that Mike Patton) as Wario and Waluigi

Charles Martinet as Wario, of course!

@FishyS CROOKLYN

While I really want Wario in a sequel, I hope the koopalings will be starring as the main villains alongside Bowser (similar to the transition from SMB to SMB3). Wario could still appear as an important side-character/anti-hero.

Wario (and Waluigi) should absolutely be in the sequel. It'd be very interesting to see one or both of their origin stories. Either of them would be a worse rival than Spike ever was. I also want Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings. Really, I want quite a few more Mario characters to appear. Daisy could make her debut as a love interest for Luigi and possibly cause a rivalry between Luigi and Waluigi over her. The morbid Lumalee can be reunited with his mama.

Hear me out here, if theyre going with celebrity voices..... Willem Dafoe as Waluigi.

Danny Devito is pretty much a real life Wario, so ...

The the W bros would be nice to see and great antagonists, they’re both greedy, self serving, wreckless and obscene. It’d have to involve a treasure hunt, possibly them stealing treasure from all the worlds within mushroom kingdom and the Mario bros chasing them down.

These articles really suck. The movie isnt even a week old yet and I haven't had the chance to go see it (I was planning to this weekend), and already I'm massively spoiled by just browsing past the thumbnail. I'm going to guess this was the post credits scene, so that's now ruined. Awesome.

@Giancarlothomaz I'm going through Gold for the first time right now and gd it is probably the funniest one to me. The voicework and lines are amazing.

I'd like a standalone Wario comedy. Cut out all the stupid heroes and what-not and just have day to day Wario and his buds looking for gold and food and being lazy.

I rather have Wart, Birdo and Mouser in the sequel since it’s going to be Super Mario Bros. 2.

My favourite Nintendo character of the "Super Mario Universe". Please do him justice.

To be fair, of all the characters Martinet has the best track-record with Wario. He was fantastic in Wario Ware Gold, could easily voice him in a prospective sequel.

However, having said that, if they must make a Hollywood choice Pedro Pascal would be a good choice, I guess, would need to hear the "Wah!" first.

@HammerGalladeBro Peter Woodward voiced Dick Dastardly in the 2017 Wacky Races, which I just now learned exists.

@Shmorpmeistercorn Mike Patton has mainly only voiced monsters, which is kind of surprising considering his insane vocal range.

It'd be nice if animated films weren't just a continuation credit for actors, but also a starting point. Why do we need an established actor to portray the likes of Wario and Waluigi? Brand recognition be damned, voice acting shouldn't demand Hollywood royalty.

Nicholas Cage as Wario

Charlie Day continues to be based saying that Charles Martinet should play Wario in the movies.

@Mario_maniac I agree with you entirely, but we're working within the lanes of reality here. I can almost guarantee that any subsequent movies will have the same approach to voice acting. I'd love to see actual voice actors elevating these roles instead of merely filling them (Bowser aside, Jack Black was great), but that's not the Hollywood way.

If it were a live action movie I'd say John Leguizamo. Just put him in a Wario-fied version of the costume he wore in Spawn as the Violator. He practically disappeared into that role. What a triumphant return to the Mario universe that would be.

@nessisonett totally agree.

Waluigi voice discussion as well or I riot.
