There’s been…mixed reviews with the release of the new Aladdin trailer this past weekend. Although many are still excited to watch the film, it didn’t stop them from clowning Will Smith, who’s playing the genie. Those who aren’t excited for the new film certainly went in and had something to say regarding Smith’s character in the movie.
Will Smith and Disney have received backlash from the fans hoping they could unsee the trailer. However, he did say he would not be blue throughout the entire film. “I told y’all I was gon’ be Blue!! Y’all need to trust me more often!” He said.
