The previous trailer was all about the caves of wonders but the new trailer shows us more of will smith as the genie.
The actor is in full genie mode for the first trailer for Guy Ritchie ‘s live-action Aladdin remake, which dropped during the Grammys.
We learnt last year that the ‘blue’ look was being worked on still, which is why the hue was missing from the early teasers.
Now the trailer gives us a proper look at the colourful character as Aladdin takes the lamp from the Cave of Wonders.
Smith zooms in to say: “You really don’t know who I am? Genie, wishes, lamp — none of that ringing a bell?!”
The introduction of Will Smith has got everyone talking, more people are reacting to the blueness….

Based on the classic 1992 animated feature, the story follows a street urchin in the city of Agrabah who has his world completely changed when he takes a magical lamp from the Cave of Wonders. Inside the lamp sleeps an ancient genie with the powers to change the poor boy’s life and win him the heart of a beautiful princess — if the evil and power-hungry sorcerer Jafar doesn’t ruin everything.
