I feel like the guy playing Aladdin is someone Scott would like to attack him in a dark alley and spit on him.

I can't wait to see Demi Moore play Esmerelda again in the live action Notre Dame remake.

Think they've done a pretty good job with the live actions films so far tbf, started off really well by getting King Robb to be in Cinderella and deliver a masterful performance, and then the Jungle Book was good as well. No interest in Beauty and the Beast though so haven't seen that

At least it isn't going to be The Rock as the genie I suppose
I'm surprised they didn't offer all the money under the sun to Dev Patel for Aladdin, he's perfect for it |

I can see Will Smith as the genie though. His ranty "I have GOT to get me wunna these!!" mode has that sort of energy about it. As for Dev Patel, he must be pushing 30 which is a little old for Aladdin surely? Though to be fair, I can't find anything about the age of the guy who is playing him. But I'm sure aladdin is supposed to be late teens / early 20's? Last edited by Toy Soldier; 16-07-2017 at 10:01 AM. |

They wanted a newcomer to play Aladdin so Dev Patel and that other guy Twitter were really pushing for it were automatically out

Jade should have got it.
Not interested in seeing it with this cast and Naomi Scott is a terrible actress. Not saying Jade is any better as she is unknown but she has the vocals and look down.

Doesn't reveal much... sand dunes for the first 30 seconds. Apparently the Genie isn't animated or blue in this... |

The movie had to reshoot because Disney bosses didn't feel their existing footage was authentic enough.
https://www.aceshowbiz.com/news/view/00125386.html Guy Ritchie and the cast of Disney's new live-action version of "Aladdin" were reportedly called back for reshoots to give the movie a more Middle-Eastern feel. Filming on the project, which stars Mena Massoud as the title character, Naomi Scott as Princess Jasmine, and Will Smith as the Genie, originally wrapped in January. However, a movie insider told British newspaper The Sun that cast and crew had to return to London earlier this month to reshoot several scenes with additional Middle-Eastern looking extras - as Disney bosses didn't feel their existing footage was authentic enough. A movie insider said: "Disney wasn't massively impressed with the first draft and had its cast return to London to reshoot parts of the movie. They are eager for it to do as well as last year's 'Beauty & The Beast', which made Ł1 billion ($1.3 billion) at the box office." The Sun's source claimed that producers felt initial footage wasn't true enough to its Arabian folk story source material - and so cast new, Middle-Eastern extras in a number of scenes. "They want it to be respectful and feel authentic, so they cast more Middle Eastern extras for crowd scenes," the insider said, also revealing that Will's role as the Genie has been expanded. "Aladdin" has already been hit by controversy, after an extra in the film, Kaushal Odedra claimed pale-skinned extras had been made-up to look more Arabian. Disney chiefs denied Odedra's claims, stating that make-up had only been used for crew members, stunt performers, and animal handlers, to help them blend into crowd scenes. After the reshoots, the insider said Disney producers are now "a lot more confident" the movie will be a hit on its release next May. Representatives for the company did not respond to a request for comment. |

Guy Ritchie is enough to give me pause, he is a woeful director and there's no way he can pull off a musical when all he does is his terrible little 'geezer' films. The trailer does little to convince me otherwise.
The Beauty and the Beast remake felt authentic from the first trailer, the first poster even. This just feels like a trainwreck. What were Disney thinking of hiring Guy Ritchie of all people for this? |

For ****s sake, Aladdin is meant to be hot. He was my first crush as a kid
I also hate how they keep butchering Disney classics. However am oddly excited for this one? As I love the original so much

As much as I can't stand Guy Ritchie, This will be a hit regardless of who directs it. It's Disney after all.

I think he's quite attractive tbh.
I don't think it's likely to find someone of the right ethnicity to play an Aladdin that looks like the one from the animated films as they based Aladdin's look on Tom Cruise so you'd essentially have to find an arabic person with very caucasian features and hope that they can also sing and act to a high standard too, a bit of a specific ask |

I can’t believe no one is voicing Iago when he’s one of the best characters
