We all remember growing up with timeless Disney classics. The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, Cinderella all come to mind for a live action remake. Guy Ritchie had another movie in mind, one that is a beloved memory of the late Robin Willians. This is of course the new live-action adaptation of Aladdin, starring Will Smith as the Genie.

The first problem faced by Guy Ritchie was how they were going to handle the said Genie role in Aladdin. The shoes Robin Williams left are huge ones to fill, and they needed someone who could make the character their own.

Will Smith has a dynamic range of skills, so he might be the best choice for the role in Aladdin. He has starred in a wide arrange of roles, so the potential he possesses brings in a magnitude of options for the movie.
