Gaga has always derived some influence from videogames in different outfits, performances and art she represents. With the latest Mario movie being a smash hit. I was wondering how people would feel if she voiced a Mario character in the next film.

I think the best character that would match her would be Pauline:
 

720


Pauline was kidnapped in Donkey Kong, the arcade game that first featured Mario. In 2017, she returns as the mayor of a city that closely resembles New York City. She also is a Jazz singer. She performs Jump Up, Superstar which is a big Jazz Band track as well as a more upbeat, anime J-pop influenced track. I could see Gaga replicate those songs whether covering them or writing a few new tracks for the movie that take similar inspiration.

If Pauline happened to star in a Donkey Kong spin-off that releases in 2025. It could be a good and quick follow up for her after Joker: FAD. I think it would show good depth for her to be able to do something completely different and appeal to a more family friendly audience after her roles in Joker and House of Gucci. Not to mention she would get some experience voice acting for the first time. As well as potential voice credits. The Super Mario Bros movie is projected to reach over 1 billion worldwide. Donkey Kong could perform similarly and given Peach’s role in Mario bros. Pauline could be written similar in terms of being a strong female type instead of a damsel in distress. Writing a few original tracks that work within the Mario universe and are popular would also boost her profile significantly in terms of her experience in different parts of the industry.

I don't know why people here keep wanting her to be in bad mainstream movies.

I hardly believe she would take a role right now that isn't going to secure her some BIG awards nominations tbh.

I could see her doing that if it were the right project, such as the next Knives Out movie, a musical like tick...tick...Boom! or a film like Emily the Criminal.  She could also go back to series with a project like White Lotus.  These types of projects are of high-caliber but not necessarily award magnets.  Plus, I think her working with Disney in some capacity is inevitable (we were robbed of her Ursula and I would have loved to see her as Cruella).

I feel a role like this could be done after Joker:FAD depending on reception. She doesn’t want to completely pigeon hole herself into certain roles. I think Joker:FAD will really prove her acting chops more than any prior role of hers. She could surprise with a more family and kid friendly role. It could also likely be a project that could be done while doing her Vegas shows. Something that would be quicker to do to keep her film career going until she takes on her next major film project after Joker:FAD. Super Mario Bros. Is projected to do over a billion world wide. Gaga has always had shown interest in videogames, as well as culture and different forms of art/entertainment. It could be relevant for Gaga culturally speaking to be apart of the first really successful videogame adaptation to film. If she does any original songs for the film she could be nominated for some awards.

I thought it was really good and the audience score on Rotten Tomatoes agrees. The film is projected to do over a billion. Mario is essentially this generation’s Mickey Mouse. He represents the videogame industry which is relatively young compared to other media such as books, films, animation, and comics. With Mario’s success it could pioneer Hollywood to pursue more videogame adaptations. Gaga has always shown an interest in the videogame industry and Nintendo projects in general. Depending on execution of the film and character, I could see her being Pauline, the female lead in the new Donkey Kong film.
