Scott - who audiences may recognize from 2017's Power Rangers adaptation or even Disney Channel's underrated original movie Lemonade Mouth back in 2011 - does all of her own singing in the film, including a Jasmine-centric new song, "Speechless." The actress is actually an independent artist with two EPs under her belt ...
The answer, surprisingly, is both. Parts, like that opening segment of Speechless, were sung live on set. Speaking to Jimmy Kimmell on his US chat show, Scott said: “I was [singing] for a lot of it, yeah.
Massoud spent two days 18 feet underwater for a particular scene in Aladdin. But it was also a crash course in many respects, including the singing, dancing, and stunt work he had to do for the film.
Weinger, 43, voiced the titular character while Kane, 45, provided Aladdin's singing voice. Weinger has continued to voice Aladdin for several Disney animated films including Mickey's House of Villains, Aladdin and the King of Thieves and more.
Princess Jasmine sang only one song in Disney's 1992 animated version of “Aladdin.” And it was a duet. Sure, it was “A Whole New World,” arguably the film's most famous song. But it wasn't her own.

How old was Scott Weinger when he voiced Aladdin?
Weinger was cast as the speaking voice of Aladdin, the street urchin in Walt Disney Pictures' animated feature film Aladdin, starting at the age of 16, for which he would win the Saturn Award for Best Performance by a Younger Actor the following year.
He provided the singing voice of the character Aladdin, opposite Lea Salonga (Jasmine), in the 1992 film of the same name, as well as its sequels. In 1993, Kane teamed up again with Salonga to do a live version of "A Whole New World", the hit song from Aladdin, at the 65th Academy Awards.
The original Aladdin story was actually set in China. Aladdin is one of the stories compiled in The Thousand and One Nights — a collection of Middle Eastern and Indian folk tales, however, it did not appear in the original Arabic text.
The first teaser clip of Will Smith singing as the Genie in Disney's live-action remake of Aladdin is here... and we're pleasantly surprised by what we hear. Will Smith had no easy task following in Robin Williams' footsteps, as the Genie in Aladdin.
How much did Robin Williams improvised in Aladdin?
During the course of recording the voices, the late Robin Williams improvised so much they had almost sixteen hours of material. Because Robin Williams ad-libbed so many of his lines, the script was rejected for a Best Adapted Screenplay Academy Award nomination.
Although Jafar sings at the end of the show, the song can be easily spoken in rhythm, so cast the role based on your student's ability to take command of the stage. The Sultan is the aloof Toy Vendor who transforms into the doddering ruler of Agrabah.
Princess Jasmine, a fictional character from Disney's animated film "Aladdin," is not explicitly identified as Indian in the movie. Instead, she is depicted as a resident of the fictional city of Agrabah, which is often seen as a blend of Middle Eastern and South Asian cultures and influences.
If Ritchie's film was based on the original story, the entire cast would be Chinese - apart from the sorcerer, who would be North African - but as it's said to be a faithful remake of Disney's animation, Aladdin and Princess Jasmine should really be Middle Eastern or South Asian, despite the film not being an authentic ...
Dr Naomi Scott studied at Cambridge (BA) and UCL (MA, PhD), and since 2017 has been a lecturer in the Department of Classics and Archeology at the University of Nottingham.
If the film does happen, then it will likely be based on 1994's The Return of Jaffar and bring back Marwan Kenzari as Jaffar and Naomi Scott as Jasmine alongside Mena Massoud and Will Smith as the leading characters.
Robin only refused to come back for the second Aladdin movie because he had issues with Disney stemming from the way his Genie character was advertised in the first movie, (which he told the company not to do when he agreed to do the voice and they didn't listen).
DJ & Steve (cousin) talk in Michelle's room, DJ says to Steve, "Hey Steve, you wanna go ice skating tomorrow." he replied "I can't your dad is taking me to a Warriors game." DJ replies, "Well we can go tomorrow." She repeated the same phrase twice.
Cassim is the father of Aladdin. Long before the events of the first film, he left his wife and young son in order to find a better life for the poverty-stricken family. While he was gone, Aladdin's mother died, leaving Aladdin as a presumed orphan.
While some claim Jasmine is Arab because the movie opens with a song called Arabian Nights, others believe that the architecture in Agrabah is clearly based on the Taj Mahal, making Jasmine Indian. It's a debate that has fueled speculation that in Hollywood, Indians and Arabs are interchangeable.
