“Wahoo, wahee,” indeed. After months of speculation, Nintendo affirmed the new VO actor for Mario is the Los Angeles-based voice actor Kevin Afghani. Afghani said he was providing the tenor for both Mario and Luigi in a post to his X, formerly known as Twitter, account on Friday. “Incredibly proud to have voiced Mario and Luigi in Super Mario Bros. Wonder,” he wrote.
Gizmodo reached out to Afghani, and we’ll update our story if we hear back. According to his IMDb profile, the VO actor has previously voiced the character Arnold in Genshin Impact and portrayed Raditz in the Dragon Ball R&R anime. Nintendo finally admitted to the voice actor’s name after an unverified list of performers appeared first on 4chan and then spread to the wider internet. The list was reportedly lifted from a kiosk demo for Super Mario Bros. Wonder.
