The Super Mario Galaxy Movie: Glen Powell To Voice Fox McCloud
Yesterday, it was announced that Fox McCloud from StarFox will appear in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. Now we know that Glen Powell will voice him.
Yesterday, Universal and Illumination awakened the fandom sleeper agent in me by announcing that Fox McCloud of Star Fox fame would be making an appearance in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. There were a lot of "do a barrel roll" jokes and people wondering if this movie is secretly going to be some version of a Super Smash Bros. type of thing, which would be absolutely buckwild insane. Some are also a little annoyed about the fact that they spoiled this reveal, but in this era of marketing, we should be surprised they waited this long. Now we know who voices Fox, and it's none other than Hollywood's new 'It Boy" Glen Powell. Powell confirmed the casting on his official Instagram in a jacket I desperately need to own.
