We've gone back to Paramount to find out (how we can make a new movie), because they own the title. I think they've had some things in the works, but I do think it would be interesting to take the exact story basically, and do it from her (Alex Forrest) point of view.
She added, "I think she'd become a tragic figure, rather than perceived as an evil figure."
AQUAMAN---writer David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick is returning to write the sequel.

That Genie pic is priceless. I've never bothered with Disney's "live action" (HAH!) remakes in theaters, and now the trend continues. Maybe Mulan has a shot...

Okay, so another superhero team movie, but this time Evans doesn't have to bulk up for it and he gets to play Cleopatra or a Scotland Yard gumshoe?

Thanks, Dragon!
I commented on the other side of the board in the post about Mencken's score. I don't really get all the hysteria bouncing around about this. Genie wasn't blue enough, now he's too blue, cultural appropriation, yada, yada. Maybe the film will suck, but it has Mencken's filmscore!
I don't see the outrage either. Are they upset a black man is blue in color? Or he looks nothing like the animated version? My biggest concern is Will Smith hasn't been "funny" in 25 years.
BTW, Disney stole the design for the Genie from Don Bluth's video game Space Ace. Where the bad guy looked like an "Alien Genie".
