When Chris Pratt and Charlie Day were announced to be playing Mario and Luigi in, fans immediately questioned the choices. In a recent Instagram video, both stars poked fun at the reaction, showcasing different voices for their characters.
In a recent post on Chris Pratt’s Instagram, both he and Day are seen with Mario and Luigi filters over their face, respectively. Pratt then pokes fun at how everyone can’t wait to hear his Mario voice, before delivering a classic “It’s-a-me, Mario” in a gruff, deep tone. Day then “reveals” his Luigi voice, but instead just mouths words without saying anything.
