Last month, Nintendo announced that Mario’s longtime original voice actor, Charles Martinet, would be stepping down from the role, and would instead be a “Mario Ambassador” going forward. Many fans were curious about who the next voice actor for the role will be, especially given the next Mario game, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, is out soon. Now, it seems we finally have an answer, as the voice actor has revealed himself.
Los Angeles-based voice actor Kevin Afghani announced on X, formerly Twitter, that he is the new voice of both Mario and Luigi in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, replacing Charles Martinet. Afghani previously voiced Arnold in Genshin Impact. It’s also worth noting that a recent datamine of the Mario Wonder demo revealed Afghani’s name on a list of voice actors, among others.
