May 22, 2019 by Gary Collinson

Aladdin, 2019.

Directed by Guy Ritchie.
Starring Mena Massoud, Naomi Scott, Will Smith, Marwan Kenzari, Navid Negahban, Nasim Pedrad, Billy Magnussen, Alan Tudyk, and Frank Welker.

Disney conjures up the second of its three animated remakes for 2019 this week with the release of the Guy Ritchie-directed Aladdin, starring Mena Massoud as the titular street urchin alongside Naomi Scott as Princess Jasmine, Will Smith as Genie and Marwan Kenzari as Jafar.

Here’s EJ Moreno with his thoughts on the movie…

A thrilling and vibrant live-action adaptation of Disney’s animated classic, “Aladdin” is the exciting tale of the charming street rat Aladdin, the courageous and self-determined Princess Jasmine and the Genie who may be the key to their future.

Aladdin is directed by Guy Ritchie (King Arthur: Legend of the Sword) and features a cast that includes Mena Massoud (Aladdin), Naomi Scott (Princess Jasmine), Will Smith (Genie), Marwan Kenzari (Jafar), Navid Negahban (The Sultan), Nasim Pedrad (Dalia), Billy Magnussen (Prince Anders), Numan Acar (Hakim), Alan Tudyk (Iago) and Frank Welker (Abu).
