OH JAMES IS PERFECT! He completely made the Genie his own but also stayed true to Robin William's version. He's in Hamilton now, I believe. Which, I'm sure he kills that part, too! Huge fan of his! Tried to stage door for his autograph but had to leave before he came out!

Yeah I wish they could have gotten him for the film role.

Rian Johnson said one of his earliest jobs was doing "coming up next" commercials for Disney Channel.

Just saw Hamilton recently -- yes -- he kills it! Plays Lafayette and Jefferson -- fantastic!!

guys Will Smith is gonna be great! this is a humor role not like his last few movies! I see his adaptation of the genie being unique but still true to the vision. No one was gonna be able to replace Robin Williams and it would be an insult to try and cast the same kind of genie if you ask me!
