“Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” said Black in an interview withGameSpot, before switching into a trailer narrator voice: “Wario. Pedro PascalisWario.”
He explained that “it’s not a given” that Bowser will be back for a future installment. “You know, I did a fewKung Fu Pandamovies, and it was a different villain every movie. They may do the same thing,” Black added.
