He continued, “She is going to be such a positive icon for little girls everywhere & if there’s one reason to go see @disneyaladdin it’s her. @naomigscott I wouldn’t rather be on this journey with anyone else. #MySultan.”

Our hearts!

Naomi also shared kind words about Mena, writing, “@menamassoud I love you forever, I cannot WAIT for people to see how bloody talented you are and how you were able to take such an iconic character and translate everything we loved about Aladdin and more. You are gonna knock people’s socks off. I’m so blessed to be on this journey with you.”

Aladdin is out on Friday, May 24th.

Mena Massoud took a quiz to find out which Disney prince he was and had some shocking revelations!

The 27-year-old actor stars as Aladdin in the new movie out this Friday (May 24), but turns out, he wouldn’t be Aladdin in real life.

During the video, Mena also disclosed that he had never seen The Princess and the Frog.

“I’m a very rare prince because I can’t remember seeing that movie ever. I’m sorry guys,” Mena says. “I’m going to go home and watch it now.”

Naomi Scott and Mena Massoud hug it out inside the official after party for the premiere of Aladdin, held at Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood on Tuesday night (May 21).

The two stars of the film joined co-stars Will Smith, Marwan Kenzari, Numan Acar, Navid Negahban, with composer Alan Menken, choreographer Jamal Sims, and director Guy Ritchie inside the party.

In a recent interview with EW, costume designer Michael Wilkinson explained why Mena is not shirtless like his cartoon counterpart in the new movie.

“For the same reason why we thought it wasn’t appropriate for Princess Jasmine to be flashing her belly button for half of the film, we also felt that once you make that leap from cartoon into live-action, you really have to make some adjustments.”

He added, “We thought having so much skin showing on Aladdin for the whole film would be quite distracting on a human actor as opposed to a cartoon character.”

Speaking with Digital Spy recently, Mena revealed that there was a duet with Aladdin and Jasmine planned for the flick that was cut.

“We shot a lot of stuff that didn’t make it. There was a new duet that me and Naomi [Scott] sang together,” he shared. “I had to learn how to juggle and I had to learn to play the oud, which is that classical Middle Eastern guitar or string instrument.”

He adds, “In the end, it’s Naomi that plays it in the film, so a lot of things can change.”

However, Mena is still asked how to juggle.

FYI: Mena wore an AllSaints shirt and jacket.

Naomi Scott and Mena Massoud pose with their co-stars at the press conference for Aladdin in Los Angeles on Sunday afternoon (May 19).

The two stars were joined by Will Smith, Nasim Pedrad, Navid Negahban, plus production designer Gemma Jackson, composer Alan Menken, and director Guy Ritchie to chat up the movie ahead of the premiere this week.

Speaking with NY Daily News recently, Naomi and Mena opened up about making the iconic characters their own for the flick.

“We wanted her to be even more ambitious,” Naomi says of bringing a new life to Jasmine. “In the original, she’s fighting for the choice to marry who she wants, which is amazing, but in this movie, she’s not just fighting for her own choice. She’s fighting for the freedom and the choice of her people.”

She adds, “At the beginning of the movie, her objective is she wants to lead. I think that’s really important, because I think sometimes it’s about just telling the story through a female narrative. Actually having a narrative, whatever that may be. For Jasmine, that’s finding her voice.”

Mena says of Aladdin, “He’s on a search for his personal identity, and I think that’s something that everybody goes through. I went through it in high school. It’s like, ‘Who am I? Am I good enough? Is my background good enough? I know I’m different, but do I have a voice?’ (Aladdin) literally goes on that journey in the film.”

Aladdin hits theaters on Friday, May 24th.

FYI: Naomi is wearing Balmain. Mena is wearing an AllSaints bomber jacket.
