In addition to this theory, the directors of the plot explained what is true and what is a lie about the rumors of ‘Aladdin’
The film ‘Aladdin’, which was released on November 25, 1992, introduced the character that gives the film its name to the Disney cinematographic universe. The animation, which quickly became a classic, also became a franchise, winning several games over the years and its first live-action adventure in 2019.
Additionally, in celebration of the digital release of ‘Aladdin: Diamond Edition’, Disney Movies Anywhere and Blu-Ray, the directors of the plot,Ron Clementsand john musker, commented in 2015 in an interview with E! News about some rumors surrounding the film and other feature films.
Among the rumors surrounding ‘Aladdin‘, is that the peddler, — who sells, among so many things, the lamp to Aladdin — is actually the Genie himself. The theory gained even more strength, because, in addition to the mannerisms, the two characters are voiced by the same actor, robin williams.
About this, Ron echoed the rumour, confirming the rumour: “I saw something that speculates that the wanderer at the beginning of Aladdin is the Genie. That’s true!”. clementsthen continued: “That was the whole intention, originally. We even had it at the end of the movie, where he would reveal himself to be the Genie, and of course robin made the peddler’s voice. Just through story changes and a few edits, we missed the reveal at the end. So this is an urban legend that really is true.”
MORE THEORIES
Still, the voice actor of the main character of the plot, Scott Weinger, explained of another situation: “I feel bad that people are so eager to find out, but it’s not true: the Aladdin thing saying, ‘Take off your clothes.’ There are websites dedicated to this. Like, ‘If you play it back in slow motion at that frame rate, you can tell he’s definitely saying that.’ The truth is, I never said it. I never said! I feel bad about being a myth buster, although it’s probably a good myth to debunk.”
Scottstill completed his thought: “Let me say, being in the recording studio with robinWilliamswanting to do a good job and not screw it up, there’s no way I would have made a dirty joke.”
Continuing the chat about Prince Ali’s film, there is the theory that the film takes place in a future where the apocalypse has already occurred, which made john muskercommenting: “Far in the future?”, and added: “I didn’t even hear that one.”
The first version of the feature, which had as composers Howard Ashman and Alan Menken, had its original setting in the capital of Iraq, in Baghdad. However, with the outbreak of the Gulf War, john musker commented on some changes.
John then he said: “We held Baghdad in our first treatment, and then there was the Gulf War – the first Gulf War. roy disney said: ‘This cannot be in Baghdad.’ So I took letters and made a confusing anagram and created Agrabah,” he continued: “We created some alternatives. But no, we never thought it was post-apocalyptic, futuristic or some other time.”
