"Donald Glover, Childish Gambino himself, is playing Yoshi. The Community actor and rapper did not make an appearance in the Direct like Chris Pratt, Charlie Day, and others, but they made sure everyone knows he is a big fan of Nintendo's games."
"Now that we know the voice behind Yoshi, I assume we're about to get an absolute tidal wave of memes and edits of Yoshi with Glover's out of pocket rap lyrics. So be ready for the internet to have a field day with this one."
Nintendo and Illumination announced additional cast members for the Super Mario Galaxy Movie sequel during a Mario Day Direct presentation. Donald Glover, known as Childish Gambino, will voice Yoshi, while Luiz Guzman plays Wart and Issa Rae voices the Honey Queen. The Direct featured promotional appearances from existing cast members including Chris Pratt and Charlie Day. The film releases April 1, with this announcement likely representing the final major casting reveal before release. Internet speculation suggests Glover's casting will generate significant meme content combining Yoshi with his rap lyrics.
