SETH Rogen has hinted his Donkey Kong character could be part of a ‘Fast and Furious’-style spin-off movie.

The 40-year-old actor voices the anthropomorphic necktiewearing gorilla in forthcoming computer-animated fantasy film ‘The Super Mario Bros. Movie’, and has admitted there is ‘a lot of opportunity’ for the primate to land a standalone project.

He told Collider: “There’s a lot of opportunity there. I think the family unit of the Kongs seems to be — and if the ‘Fast and Furious’ movies have taught us anything [it’s] that it’s all about family.”

Rogen also admitted there is a motoring link between car franchise ‘Fast and Furious’ and Donkey Kong and his gokart-loving family, who include Cranky, Diddy, Dixie and Tiny Kong.

He added: “They’ve got those gokarts. There’s a lot of crossover!”

Earlier this week, Rogen admitted his approach to playing Donkey Kong was to ensure he had a ‘good comedic dynamic with the other characters’ and that he could be comical in scenes.

He told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “The voice sounds like me. I’ve done a lot of these. I don’t change my voice. I’m not one of those actors.

“For me [it was about] finding a way that the character has a good comedic dynamic with the other characters and making sure I feel like I can just be funny in the scenes.

“That was my approach to Donkey Kong.”
