Update!
I forgot to tell you that you'll have to send your lines through google drive if you're chosen. Thank you for reading. Have fun auditioning! Or commenting.
What’s up everyone! I’m putting together a full fandub of the Super Mario Bros. Movie, and I’m looking for a good cast.
I’ve already decided to play Bowser, so I need the rest of the crew. We’re going for high energy here. You don’t have to do a perfect impression of the movie actors, but I want to hear that "Brooklyn heart" and the big personality these characters deserve. And know that Mario and Luigi don't have much of a brooklyn accent, it's their family and Spike who really do.
THE SCRIPT:
We’ll be using the full movie script found on the Super Mario Bros. Moviepedia Wiki: https://movies.fandom.com/wiki/The_Super_Mario_Bros._Movie/Transcript. Please head there to find the lines for the character you’re playing if you get the role!
WHAT I’M LOOKING FOR:
Energy: Don't be afraid to get loud. I wanna hear those loud screams.
Audio: Keep it clean--no background fans or static, please.
Takes: Give me 2 or 3 different reads so I can see your range.
ROLES:
I need everyone: Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, Donkey Kong, and the whole family (Papa, Mama, Uncle Tony, and Giuseppe +more).
Let’s make this something awesome. Can’t wait to hear what you guys bring!
I might go even further to do the Galaxy Movie, so be prepared, cause I'll be needing you. And please chat in the DMs.

Aim for a voice similar to the "Chris Pratt" take in the film—a regular Brooklyn guy, distinct from the classic high-pitched game voice.
I’m just... so sick and tired of feeling so small.
Yeah, I've been told that before.
Let's-a go...
Think high anxiety, energetic, and raspy like Charlie Day's portrayal.
Eh, you’re not bringing me down. Ya know what? What do they know, huh?
Mario! HOW IS THIS GONNA BE OKAY???!!!
Oh, uh, thanks. Yeah, it's kinda my thing.
This role needs a confident and capable tone, not a stereotypical damsel in distress.
I can convince him. I'll leave for the Jungle Kingdom in the morning.
They’re all counting on us. No pressure.
They took me in, raised me like one of their own, and when I was ready, they made me their princess.
DO NOT TOUCH THAT MUSHROOM, YOU'LL DIE! (Silence) Oh, I'm sorry, that one's perfectly fine.
Excuse me, everybody, coming through! This guy's brother is going to die imminently! Out of the way, please!
I'M TOO CUTE TO DIE!!!
Aim for the arrogant and loudness out style of Seth Rogen's DK.
Ha! He got the Cat Box!
This is painful! You are so embarrassing! A princess would never go out with you!
I... AM MORE... THAN A GUY... WHO SMASHES THINGS!
Look for a voice that sounds mid-pitched, sycophantic, and slightly elderly. I can't really describe his voice so you should look for a clip with him in it so you can understand.
Behold, the King of the Koopas!
Sire, look in the mirror. You have nothing to worry about.
Attention prisoners! You have been invited to the royal wedding... where you will be ultimately SACRIFICED!
Do your best soft, cute, sweet, young boy impression. Seriously, a young child. Not a cartoon child voice.
🎶 Life is sad, prison is sad, life in prison is very, very sad... 🎶
Ooh! Fresh meat for the grinder!
Time, like hope, is an illusion.
Deep and elegant voice, no high pitched Penguin voice, just a deep royal king.
Attack!
That is but a taste of our fury... do you YIELD?
SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!
Gruff, loud, and obnoxious. Think a classic Sebastian Maniscalco New York "tough guy" accent, but NOT too tough.
Well, well, well. If it isn't Brooklyn's favorite failures, the Stupid Mario Brothers!
Yeah, (in a high-pitched voice) IT'S-A ME! (laughs) Tell me: have you even gotten ONE call since you left me to start your dumb company?
Oh, yeah? Get this through your tiny brain, Mario! You're a joke—and you always will be.
Loud and gruff, just look for a scene with him to understand the concept of his voice.
We have found the princess and the mustachioed human! He has defeated Donkey Kong and won the Kong Army.
TIME TO DIE, MARIO!!!
You... can't escape me! BLUE SHELL!
Originally voiced by Charles Martinet, the orignal voice of the Mario Brothers + Wario and Waluigi-in the games.
I think... you're nuts. You don't leave a steady job for some crazy dream
And the worst part, you're bringing your brother down with you.
verybody loves mushrooms, right
The most supportive family member who deeply cares for her sons. Originally voiced by Jessica DiCicco.
Well, I thought it was incredible. It belongs in a movie theater!
Don't listen to them! The world laughed at da Vinci too.
Hey-o!
Mario's boisterous uncle who makes fun of the brothers for their plumbing commercial and white gloves. Originally voiced by Rino Romano.
Oh, it's the Super Mario Bros. from the TV!
Oops, you already did!" (Referring to them quitting their day jobs)
Yeah, but what's with the outfits? Plumbers wearin' white gloves?
Do your best Game Mario impression! You will only have two lines in this fandub, sadly. Which is "Wahoo" and "Too much? It's-a perfect! Wahoo!"
Too much? It's-a perfect! Wahoo!
Let's a go!
Say something you think would fit*
Grumpy, raspy, and total "judgmental dad" energy. Think Fred Armisen’s take—he’s not a generic old man; he’s a sarcastic king who thinks Mario is a total joke. He’s he’s stubborn, and he loves to roast people.
Now, since I want this fight to last more than five seconds, I put power-ups around the arena. You’re welcome, Mario!
Well, what are you waiting for? Pick your karts!
You did good, kid. Make your pecs dance. You deserve it!
