Disney is Officially Working On 'Aladdin' Sequel

Aladdin is officially getting a sequel!

Disney is developing a follow-up to the 2019 movie, starring Mena Massoud, Will Smith and Naomi Scott, Variety reports.

The studio has brought in John Gatins and Andrea Berloff to pen the script, which is not expected to focus on the second animated film in the series, The Return of Jafar.

The flick is “in early development”, but it’s unknown if the stars will return for the next movie.

Aladdin‘s sequel will also not be heading straight to Disney+, but will be going to theaters.

There was talk last year that the sequel could be based on Billy Magnussen‘s character, Prince Anders.
