A few years in the past it was introduced that Disney can be growing a sequel to its hit live-action adaptation of Aladdin. Man Ritchie was set to return to direct, and Mena Massoud was going to return again to reprise his position. Massoud lately provided an replace on the venture, however he appears discouraged due to the shortage of motion on the movie.
In an interview with Selection, the actor mentioned: “I do not know that there’s motion. There was a change with the writers, and they’re engaged on a model new draft. That is all I do know. If Aladdin 2 occurs, that is unbelievable. I believe it ought to occur. Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich of Rideback Productions, who did the Lego motion pictures and Aladdin, wish to ensure that they get this proper. So if we do see Aladdin 2, it isn’t going to be based mostly off the animated model in any respect. That is going to be a model new unique story.”
As you realize, there was a direct-to-video sequel to the animated movie, titled Return of Jafar, nevertheless it feels like this live-action sequel received’t inform that story.
I really preferred the live-action adaptation of this film, and it grossed over a billion {dollars} on the field workplace, so it looks like it might make sense to make a sequel! I’m undecided what’s occurring over at Disney, however Ritchie has been preserving himself busy and establishing different tasks, so it doesn’t appear to be it’s a precedence for him.
Actually, I’m extra concerned with watching Ritchie make his unique motion pictures. However, if he does get round to creating Aladdin 2, certain… I’d watch it.
