Aladdin jobless and asking for handouts :/

[Optimus Prime]

He's starring in a Hulu show releasing this week
Dev Patel is an Oscar nominee and doesn't get much work

I mean Big Will carried that movie so.................

 

[Cᵣₐₛₕ&ₜₕₑCₒᵤₚ]

Lol at studios showing him the door after hitting the diversity quota on some

s***​

 

[PoorAndDangerous]

Probably not a great idea to publicly whine about it.

 

[TheGodling]

He was just a filler role in Aladdin. Nobody came to watch that movie for him, and nobody left the movie thinking 'I can't wait to see what this guy will do next'. Dude needs to face the truth and realize he's not Tom Hardy, he's Taylor Kitsch. Except he's also not white enough to get that Taylor Kitsch backing from the studios.

Will Smith and Disney nostalgia made that movie a hit.

No he didn't. And before you even hit "Post Reply," check Gemini Man's performance.

dude is not a star, he took whatever Disney was offering because if he didn't take it someone else would have
like you said, he is not SLJ or the Rock, he has no pull to ask for a million dollars
you take Aladdin hoping your profile increases after the fact for the next contract and he's finding out unfortunately that doesn't always work

He helped just like he helped in Suicide Squad. Recognizable Ip > Stars these days but him being in a big brand also helps the ip

Why do you think the rock's highest grossing movies are jumanji and the F&F movies

i know of a person that wasnt the lead..isnt a "star"..didnt have top billing and still got 1m from disney...this dude should have gotten at least 1m for being the lead in a disney movie (that made a billion dollars)...

 

[MJ Truth]

If he was the major force in that movie generating a billion he would have role offers galore. I could’ve played Aladdin and the shyt still would’ve been a smash hit.
