As a Disney/Pixar fanatic, it's my job to give people the scoop on what's going on! Nowadays, it seems like every Disney Movie has either been "on ice" or on Broadway, but, with Beauty and The Beast being the latest, Disney is beginning to make a plethora of live-action movies. The Mulan live-action Mulan remake, currently in its early production phase, is probably the next to be released. However, there is so much controversy over white-washing and the fact that there's a high chance no songs will be included! (Like, how are you not gonna do the whole "Man Out of You" montage!?!) Anyways, since I'm outraged by that and don't know it's future success, I'll move along to the next live-action which is "Aladdin."
And, it actually has a diverse cast!
The live-action Aladdin movie has just started shooting as of the 6th of September and they look like they're having a lit time!
The title-role Aladdin is played by...
Mena Massoud
Princess Jasmine played by...
The Butt-Kicking Pink Power Ranger Naomi Scott
The Genie played by...
The Real (Fresh) Prince of Agrabah, Will Smith
The antagonist Jafar played by...
Marwan Kenzari
Along with this lit cast, SNL's Nasim Pedrad and Billy Magnussen ("Into The Woods") will also appear in it! Here's a squad pic of the Fantastic 4 on set!
