The majority of this cast are highly prolific and award-winning voice actors. You can check out what the cast sounds like in the Japanese version of the The Super Mario Bros Movie trailer:
The trailer, which Nintendo debuted during a Direct on November 29, focused a bit more on Princess Peach, Luigi, and Donkey Kong. There are also some new posters for the movie. More information on the cast, as well as trailers, will appear closer to the film’s 2023 release window.
