Overview
About the Film
Aladdin is a 1992 American animated musical fantasy film produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation, directed by Ron Clements and John Musker, and widely considered one of the crown jewels of the Disney Renaissance. The film follows Aladdin, a charming street urchin in the fictional Arabian city of Agrabah who discovers a magical lamp containing a Genie, voiced by Robin Williams in one of the most celebrated vocal performances in animation history. With the Genie's help, Aladdin reinvents himself as a prince to win the heart of Princess Jasmine, while the sinister royal vizier Jafar plots to seize the lamp and the kingdom for himself.
Robin Williams's performance as the Genie was a tour de force of improvisational comedy that fundamentally changed voice acting in animation — Williams recorded approximately 16 hours of material, ad-libbing impressions of dozens of celebrities, and the animators built entire sequences around his vocal performance. Alan Menken and Howard Ashman (who passed away during production) and Tim Rice composed a score featuring some of Disney's most beloved songs, including "A Whole New World," which won the Academy Award for Best Original Song. The magic carpet ride sequence accompanying that song became one of Disney's most romantic and visually enchanting moments.
Aladdin earned $504 million worldwide, the highest-grossing film of 1992, and was the first animated film to earn over $200 million domestically.
