While in Tokyo with his co-stars Anya Taylor-Joy and Keegan-Michael Key to promote The Super Mario Bros. Movie and its upcoming 2026 sequel, actor Charlie Day (who voices Luigi) was interviewed by the Italian podcast Tintoria. He was asked to name his favorite portrayal of Luigi in recent American media.
The new movie, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, came out in theaters nationwide this month. As a sequel to the hugely popular 2023 film, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, it takes the Mario universe to new heights—literally into space! Mario (voiced by Chris Pratt), Luigi (Charlie Day), Princess Peach (Anya Taylor-Joy), and the rest of the team travel among the stars in this exciting adventure.
For years, Henry Cavill was a leading contender to become the next James Bond, even before Daniel Craig’s last film, No Time to Die, came out in 2021. As time went on, expectations grew that a new Bond would be chosen soon. However, with each passing year, Cavill has aged – he’s now 42 – and reports suggest producers are looking for a younger actor who can play the role for many films to come. While Cavill has said he’d be interested in being part of a Bond movie, he now thinks he’d be better suited to play a villain instead of 007.
The main criticisms of the Dandadan manga center around its uneven pacing, a tendency to overuse silly humor that initially defined the series, and a large number of supporting characters who overshadow the leads, Momo and Okarun.

This film, written by Ben Hopkins, is a throwback to classic heist movies. It begins with the discovery of a large WWII bomb at a construction site. After the police evacuate, Aaron Taylor-Johnson leads an army bomb disposal team to defuse it. However, a five-person gang—including Theo James and Sam Worthington—sees the chaos as an opportunity to pull off a Hatton Garden-style robbery of an underground vault.
The movie really stands out because of its bold visual style, which captures a gritty, chaotic world reflecting a society overwhelmed by consumerism – think cramped, dirty streets and a constant sense of unease. While Super Mario Bros. touches on this vibe, other films explore it even further, reaching both impressive and disturbing extremes, but they’re all worth watching.
