Synopsis:

The streets of Agrabah are home to Aladdin (Mena Massoud), a lovable street rat who is eager to leave his life of petty thievery behind, believing he is destined for greater things. Across town, the Sultan’s daughter, Princess Jasmine (Naomi Scott), harbors dreams of her own. She longs to experience life beyond the palace walls and use her title to better serve the people of Agrabah, but her father is overprotective and her handmaiden, Dalia (Nasim Pedrad), keeps close tabs on her. The Sultan (Navid Negahban) is preoccupied with finding a suitable husband for his daughter, while Jafar (Marwan Kenzari), his loyal and trusted advisor and a powerful sorcerer, is frustrated with the Sultan’s passive stance on Agrabah’s future and is devising a plan to assume the throne himself.

Aladdin comes to Jasmine’s rescue when she visits the marketplace disguised as a commoner and is immediately struck by her beauty and fiery spirit, having no idea as to her true identity. Following her back to the palace, he gets caught up in Jafar’s evil scheme and comes into possession of a magic oil lamp intended for Jafar and accidentally conjures up the Genie (Will Smith) inside. A colorful and larger-than-life presence, the Genie grants Aladdin’s wish to become someone worthy of Jasmine’s love and the Sultan’s respect: Prince Ali. As Aladdin and the Genie become friends, Jasmine too, succumbs to his charms, and together they embark on a dangerous and exciting adventure that will test their faith in themselves and their love for one another.
