Will Smith is up to play "Genie" in the new, live-action version of Disney's Aladdin, and at first, a LOT of people were NOT having it.
Matter of fact, at the beginning, Will actually said "HELLLLL no," because he didn't want to touch what Robin Williams made so iconic. Then after some meetings with the directors and talking through it, he decided to go with it and he showed Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show last night how he put his own spin on "Friend Like Me" and honestly, like Jimmy Fallon, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT.
I can't wait for this!
