![]() In the animated version, Jafar puts up a front, pretends to be loyal and stand with everything the sultan says and does, but behind closed doors he’s plotting against the sultan. Kenzari played the character much too stiff and cruel. Jafar in the live-action is played by Marwan Kenzari in the animated Jafar is played by Jonathan Freeman. Scott did a fantastic job with the songs, the added song for Jasmine couldn’t have worked for everyone, but Scott’s talent overshined all the other actors. Lea Salonga sang for Jasmine in the 1992 film, and was phenomenal. Scott does a good job as well, she has the acting skills, and the voice, to really convey Jasmine’s desperation to be normal and out of the palace and her compassion for the citizens of her city. In the live-action, Naomi Scott portrays Jasmine. Jasmine, in the original, was played by Linda Larkin, who did a good job bringing the attitude and desperation of the character. ![]() The viewer can actually feel the chemistry through the screen. One thing that the live-action has on the animated is the chemistry between Princess Jasmine and Aladdin. ![]() For instance, the scene in which Aladdin was meeting the sultan, it was so awkward it was hard to watch. Massoud also made the character a little more awkward. Brad Kane sang for Weigner in the 1992 original animated film, and did an absolutely phenomenal job at it. Massoud also wasn’t up to par with the singing. Massoud did a decent job with Aladdin’s quick wit and is a good dancer, but he also made the character seem a little more selfish and less generous and compassionate at the beginning. Mena Massoud was cast as Aladdin in the live-action and he wasn’t very good at the role. He means well, but doesn’t know to go about it any other way. Even though he’s lying and pretending to be something he’s not, Weigner helps bring out the innocence in the character. Weigner did a great job with Aladdin’s character. The animated version of the film had Scott Weigner as Aladdin. Smith is funny as the genie, but not in the conventional, Robin Williams way, he was funny at times, but during others it felt like he was trying too hard to fill Williams’ shoes. There were changed lyrics, it was a different style, and it didn’t feel like the song. Smith did his own take on ‘Friend Like Me’, but it just wasn’t the same. Will Smith did a decent job, but didn’t bring the character to the genie as much as Williams. He ad-libbed hilarious, iconic scenes, such as the pinocchio bit when they are on the island. Williams plays an excellent genie because of the character he puts into it. In the animated version, Robin Williams plays the genie. The live action did not have the dynamic cast that the animated movie had. Although the live-action gives the more realistic feel, as there are actual people, the animated version is much better than the live-action. Disney has made multiple live-action movies from their original animated versions, one being Aladdin.
