Charlie Day is making the press rounds and sharing some thoughts on everyone's favorite green clad plumber. IGN South Africa recently caught up with the star of the upcoming Mario cinematic universe to discuss his iconic role. During the interview, Day was asked to rank his top choices for the greatest Luigis of all time.
Naturally, Day put himself at the very top of the list, referencing his voice work in the films. However, his second choice took a decidedly unexpected turn. Day named Luigi Mangione as his second favorite Luigi, injecting a very real world headline into the playful movie promotion.
