Aladdin 2 Official

As of May 2026, the status of Aladdin 2 is .

Disney is reportedly looking for a director with experience in and Middle Eastern/North African storytelling authenticity. The current frontrunner? Unconfirmed, but names like Jon M. Chu ( Crazy Rich Asians , Wicked ) have been whispered by fans, though his schedule is packed.

: Unlike the animated sequels, the live-action follow-up was intended to be an original story rather than a direct remake of The Return of Jafar .

According to multiple insiders (including The Hollywood Reporter ), Disney has two contingency plans: Aladdin 2

The status of a live-action remains one of Disney’s most discussed "will they, won't they" projects. Following the massive $1.05 billion success of the 2019 remake, a sequel was officially put into development in 2020. However, recent updates suggest the project has hit significant roadblocks, with conflicting reports about its cancellation and future. Current Production Status: Is It Happening?

Guy Ritchie directed the 2019 Aladdin to massive success but has since moved on to other projects: The Covenant (2023), The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare (2024), and a live-action Hercules for Disney (still in early development). Ritchie has said he "loved the experience" of Aladdin but is "not contracted" for a sequel.

For Disney, that number is a green light of blinding intensity. Sequels to live-action hits are rare— Maleficent: Mistress of Evil and Alice Through the Looking Glass both underperformed—but Aladdin ’s cultural staying power was different. The soundtrack re-entered charts. "Speechless" became an anthem. And the film found a second life on Disney+ during the pandemic, where it consistently ranked among the most-streamed titles.

Most likely outcome? Ritchie returns as a producer, and a new director helms the sequel—similar to how Tim Burton produced Dumbo but didn’t direct Alice 2 .

: The film focuses heavily on Iago’s character growth. It features the popular villain song "You're Only Second Rate". Production Note

The heart of the 2019 film was undoubtedly its trio of leads. For a sequel to work, their return is essential. Here is where the cast stands: Unconfirmed, but names like Jon M

Jafar is too iconic to leave in a lamp. The sequel could introduce a new villain—perhaps a power-hungry sorcerer or a deposed sultan from a neighboring kingdom—who frees Jafar and attempts to control him. This would give Kenzari a chance to play a more desperate, unhinged Jafar, freed from his servitude to the Sultan.

As fans eagerly await news from the palace, here is a deep dive into everything we know, the hurdles the production faces, and what the future holds for Aladdin 2 .

However, the writing team has indicated that it won't be a shot-for-shot remake. Much like the first live-action film expanded the role of Princess Jasmine (giving her a solo song and a political arc), the sequel is expected to modernize the narrative of The Return of Jafar to fit the continuity established in 2019.
