Disney has unveiled the first official sneak-peek teaser for the live-action adaptation of the classic animated musical "Aladdin," which is starring Will Smith as the Genie.

The upcoming Disney film, directed by "Sherlock Holmes" action helmer Guy Ritchie, casts Egyptian-born Canadian actor Mena Massoud (from the Amazon series "Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan") as the titular Aladdin, a charismatic street urchin who frees a magical Genie (Will Smith) from a lamp and is then granted three wishes. Aladdin uses his first wish to turn himself into an extravagant prince in order to win the heart of a beautiful princess named Jasmine (played by "Power Rangers" star Naomi Scott).

Co-written by Ritchie and John August (Big Fish, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), the film also stars Marwan Kenzari as sorcerer Jafar; Navid Negahban as Princess Jasmine's father, The Sultan; Nasim Pedrad as Princess Jasmine's best friend Dalia, and Billy Magnussen as Prince Anders.

Featuring a score by Oscar-winning "Aladdin" composer Alan Menken, which includes new recordings of the original songs and two brand-new songs written by Menken and Oscar-winning "La La Land" and "The Greatest Showman" songwriters Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, "Aladdin" is currently scheduled to hit theaters May 24, 2019. Watch the teaser trailer, above.
