The movie was set to reveal how Genie ended up in the lamp in the first place and was designed to lead into the Aladdin live-action project. There is always a chance that Disney will get the new Aladdin 2 script eventually and is pleased with it to the point where the movie does get back on track, but whether that will happen is unclear.īack in 2015, it was announced that there would be a live-action Aladdin film called Genies that introduced audiences to the backstory of one of the most beloved characters of the franchise. Disney CEO Bob Iger told CNBC a few months later that the studio would be scaling back new franchise content and big budgets, so shelving the upcoming Disney live-action remake could be part of that plan. On March 15, 2023, Massoud shared a bleak update that the highly-anticipated sequel to Aladdin was looking ' Very unlikely at this point'.Įven though the movie was initially confirmed by Disney, their lack of response to Massoud's post and viewer speculation that the project has been canceled is worrying. This already set the stage that the sequel may be delayed but a now-deleted Tweet from Massoud signals that the project may have been scrapped altogether.

In a 2022 interview with Variety, Massoud explained that there was a change that had occurred with the writers and that they were writing an entirely new draft of the sequel.

Although official cancelation news has not been given by Disney, it does not seem likely that the movie will be released anytime soon.
