Aladdin opens the door to a whole new world

An inspiring live-action adaptation of the Disney animated classic, Aladdin is the exciting story of the street boy Aladdin, the brave and confident Princess Jasmine, and the genie who may hold the key to a brighter future. The story we know will come to life in all its grandeur on the big screen, bringing us an explosion of color, dance and a touch of Arabian magic in the feature film Aladdin, in theaters on May 23. We are especially looking forward to the ghost of Genie, who will be played by Will Smith.

Directed by Guy Ritchie, which is sure to bring its own unique twist to the exciting pace, we move to the fictional port city of Agrabah. The story was written by John August and Guy Ritchie after the adaptation of the Disney classic. The cast is also selected: Mena Massoud like Aladdin Will Smith like the spirit of Genie, Naomi Scott as Jasmine, Marwan Kenzari like Jafar, Navid Negahban is the sultan Nasim Pedrad is Dahlia, Billy Magnussen in the role of Prince Anders and Numan Acar like Hakim.

The spectacle, which is waiting for us in cinemas from Thursday onwards, was filmed in Longcross and Arborfield studios in Great Britain, as well as in southern Jordan, where a real Arab historical city was set up in the middle of the desert for filming purposes. She had the main say in the entire scenography Gemma Jackson, which, among other things, won an Emmy Award for scenography in the Game of Thrones series. In the middle of the desert, she set up the imaginary city of Agrabah, infusing it with colors, culture and sounds, so that it could be seen and felt that life had always existed in it. She took inspiration from Moroccan, Persian and Turkish architecture, but we will notice Arabic, Indian and South Asian touches.

The staged version of Aladdin will be a fantasy musical, with comic contributions from Will Smith and directed by Guy Ritchie. All this is more than a great recipe for an unforgettable top-class spectacle. Since Thursday, May 23 then you can see for yourself that there is no doubt about the explosion of colors, music and imagination. It's coming to the big screen ALADDIN, in distribution 2i Movies.
