Who said they could ruin a classic. Just because Robin Williams is dead Will Smith think he just gonna slip in and run with it?!

Will Smith is a good actor, with a distinct and, sometimes, comedic voice, so I think he can do a good job.

he won't be Robin, but who could?

Eddie Murphy is one of my favorite actors, but doesn't he always "play himself", too?

I still think he'd be cool as Genie, due to his history in voice work.

Outside of stuff like Nutty Professor maybe, but Eddie Murphy playing himself is far more appropriate for Genie than Will Smith playing himself.

Dan Castellaneta does a really good Robin Williams impersonation. Make Genie CGI and have Dan voice it.

Jim Meskimen has been voicing him since '08. He's mostly done stuff for the parks I think, but he provided Genie's voice for the Re:coded movie in KH2.5.

I'm excited for this remake either way. Aladdin was my favorite film during the Disney animated renaissance era.

Genie was literally Robin Williams being Robin Williams.

And that worked, especially since the character was literally designed for him. I feel like you people are purposefully missing the point though. Will Smith can be good where he works. But from everything we've seen of him before, he doesn't work for Genie.
