We’ve Talked About Mario’s New Voice, Now Let’s Talk About His New Look

October 10, 2022

Mario, in the 2023 Super Mario Bros. Movie, looks at Toad in a mushroom patch.

Now that the trailer for The Super Mario Bros. Movie is out, Chris Pratt’s take on Mario’s voice has received a lot of attention. What hasn’t gotten a lot of attention, though, is Mario’s new look.

It might seem like there’s not much to talk about. Mario’s character design isn’t a huge departure from the games, and his look has gone through more iterations over the years than most fans can keep track of. However! I can tell you, because I witnessed it myself, that when my kid watched the trailer and Mario’s face was finally revealed, she literally yelped and jumped back from the screen. Then she cried, “What did they do to him!?”
