Choosing the right cast is crucial for producing a good film, especially in video game adaptations. Historical challenges include miscasting and misinterpretation of source material. Recent casting choices for the new Street Fighter movie, such as Orville Peck as Vega and David Dalsmatian as M. Bison, have raised eyebrows among fans. Notable miscastings in the past include Chris Pratt's portrayal of Mario, which many viewed as underwhelming, especially compared to more energetic performances by other cast members. Dennis Hopper's portrayal as President Koopa in the original Mario film is another example of puzzling casting in the industry.
Chris Pratt's voice in the Mario film felt underwhelming compared to his co-stars, leading to a perception of lazy casting aimed at star power rather than authenticity.
Dennis Hopper's role as President Koopa in the Super Mario Bros. film remains one of the most baffling casting decisions in video game movie history.
