Our new Aladdin has been cast, with relatively unknown Mena Massoud taking the role. Naomi Scott will play Jasmine, and Will Smith will voice the Genie. But what about the classic Disney villain, Jafar?
Reports point to Marwan Kenzari as the man for the role. THIS guy

It’s not adding up
We’ll reserve judgement until we see him in costume
Just spare a thought for poor Jasmine
The whole script could change
Maybe we can just rename the movie as ‘Jafar’?
Just when we thought this year couldn’t get any stranger…
