I honestly thought they'd go for Kevin Hart

 

[Mortal1]

He has the energy to match a 90's era Robin Williams I think it could've worked

This may actually backfire...I like him, but no one checking for Will anymore

Edit: not backfire per say because everything the mouse touches turns to gold, but his casting may limit the film's monetary success

Y'all should feel happy for the brother if true.

Yeah he's manic. But robin was also a good actor which some cats forget. Not to say Kevin isn't or is because I don't know. But we know will is great

Apparently Disney passed on him and Riz Ahmed

 

[MartyMcFly]

Apparently Disney passed on him and Riz Ahmed

Says they want to go with an unknown but clearly the other issue is finding someone who can sing and act

 

[StraxStrax]

The more I think about it I'd like Will Smith as the Genie.

Apparently Disney passed on him and Riz Ahmed

Who the fukk passes on the two best actors under 35 for a role like that
Also Riz can sing!
