The search for Disney’s live-action musical, Aladdin is underway and can you believe it? The directors are having a hard time looking for the perfect fit for the main character a.k.a Alladdin.
The team wants to cast people that are traditionally ethnic in order to avoid any backlash from the viewers. Hollywood has been receiving criticism after various ‘white’ actors were chosen to play characters that were ethnic such as Matt Damon in Great Wall of China.
Hmm, if only the subcontinent existed? Right Disney? Really, did they forget Pakistan has some of the finest looking men in the world? One of our dapper star’s has already played the role of a dreamy prince too.
The news caused a buzz over social media and Pakistani’s jumped in to hand the casting team a hand. Everyone wants Fawad Khan to play the new Alladdin! He is apt for the part, amazing actor, dancer, and a singer too. The perfect choice!
These people are clearly doing Disney’s Job!
Disney: We need to find someone to play Aladdin.

So we came up with this comparison between the two, needless to say, we think Khan can definitely pull the look of!
Another good choice would definitely be Zayn Malik!
