The cast of the animated Super Mario Bros. movie was recently announced, and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia fans are wondering why Danny DeVito wasn't cast as Mario. As it turns out, DeVito's co-star Charlie Day will voice Mario's brother Luigi in the upcoming movie, and it's a casting that actually seems to make sense. Chris Pratt will play the voice of Mario, however, and this is where some fans have thrown a flag."Danny Devito should've been Mario not Chris Pratt, we were robbed," writes one fan. Also included to demonstrate the point is an image of DeVito in the Mushroom Kingdom with a red shirt and a Mario hat.[EMBED_TWITTER]https://twitter.com/twitter/status/1441173066378141700[/EMBED_TWITTER]Another popular tweet reads, "I cannot believe we have been robbed of Danny Devito as Mario and Charlie Day as Luigi... This is *criminal*."[EMBED_TWITTER]https://twitter.com/twitter/status/1441174704774008838[/EMBED_TWITTER]And another It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia fan went so far as to suggest Kaitlin Olson for Princess Peach, Glenn Howerton for Bowser, and Rob McElhenney for Toad. Why not, right?

The production so far is constructive and going very well, and both parties are learning a lot from each other. We humbly ask that fans wait just a little longer for the premiere, and we hope they look forward to seeing the unique characters from Super Mario Bros. on the big screen."From Nintendo and Illumination, the animated Super Mario Bros. movie will arrive on Dec. 21, 2022.
