Disney’s Aladdin (Live-Action) on Blu-ray and DVD + Giveaway

Disney‘s “Aladdin” (live-action version) is a fun and entertaining movie from Walt Disney Studios.
This giveaway is partnered with Walt Disney Studios. All opinions are my own.

I remember watching the animated version of “Aladdin” when I was a kid and was looking forward to seeing the live-action version. I thought the movie was really good! I loved the costumes and the actors did a great job in the roles they played. I thought Jafar was much better looking in the live-action version than in the animated version and that the actors cast for Aladdin and Jasmine were right on with the animated version! I really loved Will Smith as the genie as well. He is a great actor and singer and did an awesome job in this role!

This movie is a whole new way to experience the magic of “Aladdin!” Disney’s “Aladdin” (live-action version) is now available on Digital 4K Ultra HD and Movies Anywhere, as well as Blu-ray and DVD! Fans of all ages will enjoy the exciting, humorous tale of the lovable “street rat,” Aladdin (Mena Massoud), courageous and self-determined Princess Jasmine (Naomi Scott) and the larger-than-life Genie (Will Smith) with all-new bonus features. The release of the live-action adventure coincides with the addition of the original animated classic to the highly celebrated Walt Disney Signature Collection – granting “Aladdin” fans everywhere the opportunity to own both magical movies.

Extras explore elements of “Aladdin” that audiences adore, from the film’s treasured, iconic award-winning music to its beloved characters and their hilarious antics on and off screen. Viewers get the first look at an all-new song “Desert Moon,” deleted from the final film, written by eight-time Academy Award® winning composer Alan Menken and Oscar®-and Tony Award®-winning songwriters Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (“The Greatest Showman,” “La La Land”). Features document Guy Ritchie’s joyful, easy-going approach to directing that led to movie magic; Will Smith’s fresh take on the infamous shape-shifting blue entity confined to an oil lamp; Naomi Scott’s powerful performance as the spirited princess who yearns to lead the people of Agrabah; and the indescribable feeling of playing Aladdin chronicled personally by Mena Massoud. Deleted scenes and a blooper reel round out the fun.

In addition, early owners of “Aladdin” gain access to exclusive bonus features. Fans who pre-purchase will receive a feature showcasing the making of the massive musical number “Prince Ali,” and those who bring home the film first on Digital will secure an exclusive extra detailing the creation of Jasmine’s new song “Speechless.”

“Aladdin” is sure to become an instant classic for viewers of all ages and will be packaged several ways to ensure the entire family gets the most out of its in-home entertainment experience.
