Later, he was played by [[John Leguizamo]] in the ''[[Super Mario Bros. (movie)|Super Mario Bros.'' movie]]. He also appeared in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', (where [[Danny Wells]] portrayed him) and the other Western cartoons ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World (TV series)|Super Mario World]]'' (both of which gave his role to [[Tony Rosato]]); it is interesting to note that ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' is the origin of Luigi's cautious, easily-frightened personality which Nintendo later brought into the games as well, including ''Luigi's Mansion''. Also in "Super Mario World" Luigi was the one who found Yoshi and which caused Yoshi to call him Mama Luigi. Luigi appeared in the whole ''91 episodes'' of the three cartoon series, interestingly [[Mario]] only appeared in 90 episodes.

Though these are the only widely-known depictions of Luigi in other media, it is perhaps interesting to note that the character was first played in live-action (by an unknown actor) in a certain ''Mario Bros.'' commercial, more specifically one for the [[Atari 2600]] version.

The ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]'' comic serial's depiction of Luigi, oddly, features him in an opposite portrayal to his personality in the games and cartoons. In the first installment, Luigi wants to eat his lunch first and whines about his hunger as Mario continues with their plumbing job. Later, Luigi is actually willing to go into a Ghost House that Bowser has set as a trap for them, despite Mario's warnings, and then ends up going in anyway when Bowser lets loose the scent of a giant hunk of aged provolone cheese. Also worth noting is that, prefiguring ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', Luigi disguises himself as Princess Peach to infiltrate the Koopalings' hideout.
