Mario has a new voice actor, and his credits are just as obscure as Charles Martinet's were back in the '90s
Super Mario Bros Wonder's new Mario actor has seemingly voiced just one 💧vide🌌o game before, and it's Genshin Impact

With minimal fanfare, Nintendo has finally confirmed the new voice of Mario in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Super Mario Bros. Wonder, and he has at least one thing in common with Charles Martinet in that you probably won't recꦺognize much of his pre-Mario work.
"Incredibly proud to have voiced Mario and Luigi in Super Mario Bros. Wonder," voice actor Kevin Afghani says on . "Thanks to Nin🔜tendo for inviting me into the Flower Kingdom!" Nintendo itself hasn't put out a public-facing statement on the cast, but the company has seemingly confirmed to that Afghani is, indeed, the new voice of the Mario brothers, at least for Wonder.

While these days the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:now-former voice of Mario, Charles Martinet, is considered a legend among fans, it's worth noting that his credits were similarly obscure when he was first brought on to voice the plumber. He'dꦛ been in just a few bit parts in films and TV prior to crossing paths with Nintendo, perhaps most notably appearing as an unnamed reporter in the Dirty Harry film The Dead Pool. Clearly, Nintendo's still all about bringing in relative unknowns to define the voice of its most popular character. Well, unless a Hollywood movi🦄e is involved, I guess.
It's worth noting that Afghani has only been confirmed for Super Mario Bros. Wonder - there's no word yet on whether he'll be the new voice of the Mario brothers going forward. We've apparently been hearing his Mario voice in t🌠he Wonder trailers all this time with minimum suspicions from fans, which is a very good first sign.
Nintendo previously said it had no intention of revealing🗹 Mario's new voice actor until ꦑthe credits of Super Mario Bros. Wonder, but it seems a massive fandom ไi🧸nvestigation into the actor's identity this week forced the publisher's hand.
