Super Mario Bros actor John Leguizamo slams the 'all-white cast' of the remake and lack of 'Latinx leads' as Chris Pratt is cast as Mario.

Do y'all think that he has a point? I really don't care, to be quite honest with you. Mario and Luigi are supposed to be Italian anyway.

Sounds like someone is pulling a LatinoXmen card because they didn't get the voice acting role. I meant they didn't use the actors likeness that much. If he and X people are upset holla at Robert Rodriguez he could literally could make the same thing or one just for mexicans they have lots of video game franchises out there, that are made by them for them.

He's being doing that a lot lately while folks are disputing his own ethnicity. Even his own father had to tell people he isn't what he says he is.

John's supposed to be Italian too so I'm confused why is this about Latin actors. They act like Latin America doesn't have it's own movies and tv shows

No. He needs to pick his battles more wisely. Bc at the end of the day they are white too.
