Director Guy Ritchie's magical kingdom of ‘Aladdin’ is being revealed. Walt Disney has revealed first official teaser of live-action film ‘Aladdin’.

The movie stars Mena Massoud as Aladdin, Naomi Scott as Jasmine and Will Smith in the role of Aladdin’s flamboyant friend, Genie. In the teaser, Aladdin follows the basic premise of the original movie, and the trailer is beholden to those early moments, giving us a glimpse of Agrabah and the cave of wonders.
