>Will Smith has been confirmed as the Genie in the live-action reboot of Aladdin.
>The 48-year-old Hollywood legend's casting was announced at Disney's D23 Expo in California on Saturday, where it was also revealed that Naomi Scott, 24, will portray Princess Jasmine and newcomer Mena Massoud has been announced as Aladdin.
>British star Naomi is best known for her role in the recent Power Rangers reboot while Egyptian-born, Canada-bred Mena is set to star in the upcoming Jack Ryan television series.
>It's not yet known who will portray villainous Jafar, though Peaky Blinders star Tom Hardy is said to be in the running as director Guy Ritchie is said to be a big fan of the 39-year-old hunk.
It's the role he was born to play.

This is L I T E R A L L Y the only active thread on /tv/ to use the word 'Aladdin'. Making jokey little threads referring to Will Smith being genie does not aid discussion on a board.

>fridge Jasmine completely clothed to hide her no curves
This is the saddest thing about the whole ordeal. She'll dress conservately and "fitting the time".

This as well, he won't go into those threads and point out that they're shitposting though. Likely he's the OP of one of those other threads and REEEEing about losing some (You)s.
>>84991380
Why doesnt Shaq play the genie, he has experience.
Since it's live action, will Will go blueface?
>hey Al can ya make me a sandwich

NOW HOL UP
SO WHAT YOU DONE SAYIN'
*smacks lips*
IS WE SOME KINDA
MAAAGIICCC LAAAAMMPPP'N SHIIEEET!?
I think the two leads look pretty good. Would they really not get shit for casting Tom Hardy as Jafar though? I know they wouldn't dare do brownface, I guess they'd have to change his character completely? Jafar was a high-ranking official, they'd have to come up with some hokey explanation as to why he was a white dude.

>Wayne Brady
Reddit is that way you fucking worthless faggot>
Will he be blue?
>>84991380
Good casting overall. Hope Will Smith doesn't use his usual "black" humour for the genie. "AY YO THIS BE SOME REAL SHIT"
