Aladdin
Originally based on the story from One thousand and One Nights, Aladdin was first animated by Disney in the year 1992. This Middle-Eastern folklore is so popular that, over the years, it has been retold in several languages worldwide. After nearly two decades, Walt Disney made it a point to bring back the magic with its live-action adaption of the same. While Mena Massoud played Aladdin, Naomi Scott was the gorgeous princess Jasmine. Of course, Will Smith as Genie did bring mixed reviews when the teaser released, but it was undoubtedly a great rendition from the Men in Black actor.
