LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Universal Pictures and Illumination in association with Nintendo are bringing back the nostalgia with the upcoming 'The Super Mario Bros. Movie' which is set to be the third feature film adaptation of the 'Super Mario' video game series. The titular character is played by Chris Pratt and he is joined by Anya Taylor-Joy, Charlie Day, Jack Black, Keegan-Michael Key, Seth Rogen, and more. While the fans are absolutely in awe of the project altogether, several are disappointed with Pratt and his performance. 

The second trailer comes as a surprise because the fans saw the first teaser trailer merely a month ago which presented a funny, gorgeous, and colorful film. This time around, a new aspect was seen as the heroes prepare for Jack Black's Bowser's ultimate coming. The creators also dropped new posters showing Peache's castle. With everything going right, the fans are highly disappointed with Chris Pratt for Mario's voice. Some are complaining about the placid delivery whereas Mario is the opposite, and many are complaining that the actor is simply using his own voice with no modulation. The actor was recently seen in Marvel's 'Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special'.

Internet slams Chris Pratt for Mario voice in ‘Super Mario Bros’ new trailer

One disappointed user wrote, "Looks great but Mario just sounds like Chris Pratt talking regularly. For the love of all that is holy get Mario's original VA to do the lines, or hire one of the million Mario impersonators out there. WHY would you go with Pratt? Madness." Another user tweeted, "It's the worst wahoo I've ever heard. You people want it to sound like N64 like we're not in 2022. Chris Pratt is the worst part of this movie, the rest of the cast has delivered"



 



 

One user tweeted, "Yep, the new trailer confirms it. He has now said more than 2 lines and we can confirm the "wait till you hear my Mario voice!" thing was a fuckin' lie. he literally is just gonna use his speaking voice." Another user who is a Chris Pratt fan is also disappointed with the performance, "Ok...after hearing Chris Pratt's Mario voice some more...he is not the actor for this role...and this is coming from a Chris Pratt fan.(don't crucify me) Everything else looks great though"



 



 

One pissed-off user wrote, "Chris Pratt’s Mario is the audio equivalent of Ugly Sonic" Another user trolled Pratt for his sloppy performance and the wrong choice of voice for Mario and wrote, "I find it funny that one would think an Illumination celeb voice cast would be phoning it in, but no they're actually invested in doing a bang-up job And then you have Chris Pratt half asleep at the mic"
