Veteran actor Danny DeVito has said he would be interested in playing Wario in the next Mario animated movie. Speaking to The Movie Dweeb, DeVito joked that he would ask for a lot of money if the opportunity ever came up to play Wario.

After the interviewer joked that they would talk to Mario voice actor Chris Pratt about making it happen, DeVito said, "I'm gonna take them to the cleaners but [tell them] that I should be in the movie."

Speaking generally about potential upcoming roles, DeVito said, "I'm ready to do a lot of things." He said the future is uncertain and anything could happen down the road, though as of yet, there is no indication that Wario will be in the next Mario movie and nothing connecting DeVito to it.
