I♑n an interview with , Illumination CEO Chris Meledandri gave us a small insight into the upcoming Super Mario Movie which is set to star Chris Pratt, Charlie Day, Anya Taylor-Joy, Jack Black, Seth Rogan, and more.
Talking specifically about Pratt’s casting, Meledandri sa🍸id: "Chris was cast because we felt he could give a great performance as Mar𓄧io. And now that we’ve done about 15 recording sessions, and the movie is three-quarters done, I sit here and say that I love his performance as Mario."
In the same interview, Meledandri defended Pratt’s cas💝ting, explaining that, due to Melꦜedandri’s own Italian-American heritage, he felt he could make this casting decision "without worrying about offending Italians or Italian Americans." Regardless of this though, "I think we’re gonna be just fine," Meledandri adds, "especially because [Pratt]’s given such a strong performance."

After studying Film Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky eno🎃ugh to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I helped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training. My expertise lies in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, cozy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I'm also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team every now and then.
