The first poster from 'Aladdin' live-action will warm your heart

Walt Disney Studios took to Twitter sharing the poster after Smith, saying to check out the first look of the live-action remake on Thursday, hinting at a trailer debut or first official set photos. As fans of the 1992 animated movie know, Aladdin frees Genie from the lamp and uses his first wish to become Prince Ali Ababwa, a worthy suitor for Princess Jasmine.

Aladdin is among a series of live-action remakes Disney has been working on. It features the film's iconic lamp and a secret about what awaits inside it, as well as the warning "Choose wisely".

Will Smith, who will play Genie, shared the poster on his Instagram on October 10. Will Smith was the first actor to join the cast, signing on to voice Genie in July 2017. We'll have to wait and see. Naomi and Mena looked flawless as Princess Jasmine and Aladdin.

The live-action Aladdin, directed by Guy Ritchie, also stars Marwan Kenzari, Navid Negahban, Nasim Pedrad, Billy Magnussen, and Numan Acar.

Will Aladdin work as a live-action movie?

Guy Ritchie is helming the new Aladdin movie, from a script he co-wrote with Vanessa Taylor and John August.

The movie is based off the tale One Thousand and One Nights and the 1992 Disney animated film that won two Oscars. Tim Burton's Dumbo and Jon Favreau's The Lion Kingset to hit theaters in 2019, and Maleficent 2 will arrive in 2020.
