That's a HORRIBLE choice for the Genie.
If it has to be a black man, why not Keegan Michael Key or Dave Chappelle?

There's not a shot in hell he can live up to Robin Williams and there are plenty of black comedians way more suited for the roll than him
Whoooo

Shoulda cast Bruno Mars as Aladdin

I think Will Smith is a good choice. It is a song heavy role after all.

One of the quirks of Robin Williams' Genie was his ability to do impressions of other actors. From my memory, the character imitated Rodney Dangerfield, Jack Nicholson, and at least two others as part of the animation.
Will Smith is not a good impressionist, which is why Dave Chappelle or Keegan Michael Key would be a better choice.
The best pure choice, of course, is Seth MacFarlane.

One of the criticisms of Robin Williams' performance in Aladdin is that his impressions date the movie too much. For instance, how many people under 20 or even 30 know who in the hell Arsenio Hall is?
My guess is Will Smith will be instructed to stay away from celebrity impressions.
The ones I remember Williams doing from the movie are Hall, Jack Nicholson, Ed Sullivan, Jimmy Carter, Robert Diniro, Rodney Dangerfield, Peter Lorre...any others?

Ask yourself this question:
Which actor that can also sing would have you pissing your pants laughing due to his incredibly goofy portrayal and physical facial acting more? Dave Chappelle, Keegan Michael Key (Key from Key and Peele), or Will Smith?

frick all you clowns hating on The Fresh Prince.

Will Smith will do fine. Chappelle or Seth Macfarlane would've been better I agree.
Jasmine looks good.

I'm fricking done with everything. This is who they chose for Genie? Beyond fricking dumb.

I would've rather seen Josh fricking Gad as Genie

I remember this same type of reaction from this board when Gal Gadot was named Wonder Woman. Look how that turned out.
