When recreating the magic of an animated classic, there are several issues that the Walt Disney Company faces, one of which is how to tackle speaking animal characters outside of an animation setting. While some fans were impressed with the approach taken in The Lion King remake, others were disappointed in the lack of emotion visible in the character’s faces compared to the original; a similar issue Disney was to face with the upcoming release of The Little Mermaid.
A leaked image, reportedly from a new book cover, has shown what Disney fans believe is the live-action rendition of the sidekick character Sebastian in Disney’s The Little Mermaid remake, and fans are not happy. Despite sticking to the cooked-lobster coloring of the original character, sad eyes, and a small, unrecognizable mouth were among other complaints.

After the success of Disney’s live-action remake of the classic animated title, Aladdin, it was only a matter of time before a sequel was in the works. However, a number of hurdles stood in the way of the project, including a question mark over the involvement of director Guy Ritchie, and an uncertain path forward for Will Smith after a controversial act at the 2022 Oscars ceremony.
While the entire cast might not yet be confirmed, IMDB has officially credited stars Naomi Scott and Mena Massoud, as well as director Guy Ritchie. The listing makes no mention of Will Smith, though several internet sources are reporting that Smith has signed on to reprise his role as Genie, along with rumors that his role will be bigger than ever.
The Aladdin 2 project is currently in pre-production and has an estimated arrival date of May 23, 2025.
