Under the "I told you so" lines from this Joker With Brains is the story that director Guy Ritchie is having trouble looking for a male actor to lead role of the live version of the 1992 hit animated movie "Aladdin". How many times do I have to tell Disney that cramming diversity and political correctness will hit a dead end? Disney studios is looking for a male actor in his 20s of Indian or Middle Eastern descent who can sing and act. Good luck with that. Maybe try getting a Hispanic descent actor to play the role instead. The role of Jasmine could be played by Power Rangers actress Naomi Scott or Indian actress Tara Sutaria. Now for the real knockout punch for the cast is actor Will Smith is going to play the role of The Genie. Thanks a lot Disney Studios, Walt Disney must be rolling in his grave all the way to Panama City Panama.

I know what you mean. If Disney really wanted a lead actor to play Aladdin, they can get one really fast.

Why not just go all out and let a woman play Alladin. Also Peter Pan was played by a woman as I recall, remembered that just now.

Oh God, a live action Aladdin? Are there any movies for adults being made?

That is what I am wondering why doesn't Disney leave the cartoons alone? I am getting burned out with all of hype of these movies.
