The first photos of Disney's new remake of Aladdin have been released this morning!

Entertainment Weekly released their new magazine cover, featuring artwork from the new remake on their social media and reaction hasn't all been positive! 

A teaser trailer of the new film was released back in October and features some shots of actor Mena Massoud, who plays Aladdin in the film. 

People aren't so sure with the film however, with some feeling that the Genie, who is played by Will Smith, should be animated.

Our very own Astley Nathan had a very fair point, saying that: "How is this going to work?! The Genie floats and comes out of a bottle!".

Will Smith has teased that their will be a definite hip-hop feel to the new remake of Aladdin. "I think it'll stand out as unique even in the Disney world. There hasn't been a lot of that hip-hop flavour in Disney history."

The movie will feature Naomi Scott as Princess Jasmine and Marwan Kenzari as Jafar.
