Former Luigi actor John Leguizamo says of Chris Pratt's new Mario movie: 'Everyone’s like, ‘No, no, we love the old one, the original.’ They’re not feeling the new one...' For them to go backwards and not cast another [actor of color] kind of sucks.'
“I’m O.G. A lot of people love the original,” Leguizamo said when asked for his thoughts on the Chris Pratt-starring new Mario movie. “I did Comic-Con in New York and in Baltimore, and everyone’s like, ‘No, no, we love the old one, the original.’ They’re not feeling the new one.’ I’m not bitter. It’s unfortunate.”
“The directors Annabel Jankel and Rocky Morton fought really hard for me to be the lead because I was a Latin man, and they [the studio] didn’t want me to be the lead,” the actor added. “They fought really hard, and it was such a breakthrough. For them to go backwards and not cast another [actor of color] kind of sucks.”
Pratt’s casting as Mario in “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” has been controversial ever since the “Guardians of the Galaxy” and “Jurassic World” actor joined the movie. Prattahead of the film’s trailer debut that his Mario voice was “unlike anything you’ve heard in the Mario world before,” but the the trailer left many fans baffled as Pratt just sounds like himself, more or less.
In addition to Pratt and Day, “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” also stars Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach, Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong, Jack Black as Bowser, Keegan-Michael Key as Toad, Fred Armisen as Cranky Kong and Sebastian Maniscalco as Spike.
