With all the controversial casting decisions of recent times, one can never be sure.
Actor Will Smith had to reassure his fans that his version of Genie in the upcoming „Aladdin“ movie will actually be blue — just like in the classic 1992 Disney cartoon — after some confusion over the initial look of the character.
„BAM!! First look at the Genie, Princess Jasmine, and #Aladdin! Check Me Rockin‘ the Top Knot Ponytail Vibes in @entertainmentweekly (and yes, I’m gonna be BLUE!:-)),“ the star wrote on his Instagram.
