A new TV spot for the upcoming live-action Aladdin movie provides a better look at Mena Massoud as the titular character and Naomi Scott as Princess Jasmine.
The next big screen, live-action Disney remake is Guy Ritchie’s Aladdin. The film has had a mixed marketing campaign with the first trailer initially turning fans off mainly due to the blue version of Will Smith’s Genie. However, with the second trailer showing more of the film, many fans have quickly gotten back on board.
Today, Disney released a new television spot for Aladdin, focusing on the chemistry between Mena Massoud’s Aladdin and Naomi Scott’s Princess Jasmine. You can check out the TV spot below.
The TV spot really highlights the chemistry between Naomi Scott’s Princess Jasmine and Mena Massoud’s Aladdin which was something many people were worried about. The previous trailers have been very light on the romance between the two characters, but this one focuses on that. The spot also reveals new looks at the city of Agrabah and Marwan Kenzari as the villainous Jafar. While we can expect basic story elements from the original animated film, it seems the live-action remake is full of new things that could possibly set the film apart from the original.
