Charlie Day, the 50-year-old voice of Luigi, just dropped a killer casting idea for the Super Mario movies. He wants his, always sunny in Philadelphia, buddy, Danny DeVito, to play Wario next time around. Day told ScreenRant that DeVito would slide right into this wild Nintendo world. The spark came right after the Super Mario Galaxy movie hit theaters on April 1st. It's the biggest box office opener of 2026 so far, pulling in $372 million worldwide already.
