So in case somehow, you haven’t heard, Disney classic and highest grossing film in 2012, Aladdin will be making a live action debut very soon. No, we’re not kidding!
While the cast featuring Naomi Scott as Princess Jasmine, Will Smith as the Genie, and Mena Masoud as the charming lead eventually did come together, director Guy Ritchie had hit a snag in casting for the lead role. We get it, not everyone can be as perfect for a role, as Emma Watson was as Belle.
On cue, the Twitterverse decided to lend a hand, offering up some ‘questionable’ but hilarious suggestions for the role, and here are some of the best ones.
