Giuseppe

"Too much? It's-a perfect! Wahoo!"

- Giuseppe

Giuseppe is a character in The Super Mario Bros. Movie. He is a citizen of Brooklyn with a stereotypical Italian accent, reminiscent of the classic Mario voice, who is an acquaintance of Mario and Luigi, and who plays an arcade game called Jump Man (The movie’s equivalent to the Donkey Kong arcade game) in Punch-Out Pizzeria. He physically resembles the original look of Mario from the Donkey Kong arcade game, complete with the matching red hat and a pair of red trousers with suspenders, along with a blue button up shirt, tie, and mustache.

In the film, Giuseppe praises Mario and Luigi's Italian accents in their Super Mario Bros. Plumbing commercial, and is later seen among the townsfolk cheering on the Bros. after defeating Bowser. Giuseppe speaks with the voice Mario has in the Mario game series portrayed by Charles Martinet, who provides the English voice for Giuseppe in the film. Martinet also voices him in multiple foreign dubs of the film.
