In MY personal opinion, Aladdin is one of the best Disney movies of all time... so when I heard of the live-action remake I was PUMPED!

WELL, Guy explained in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that movie doesn't drop until May 24, 2019, and the film's cast and crew are still working on completing the character of Genie.

In an Instagram post, Will Smith also assured fans that he's "gonna be blue."
