ALADDIN: RISE OF THE REALM (2025) – A Whole New Throne. A Whole New War.

Magic made him a prince. Now it may take everything else.

Aladdin: Rise of the Realm (2025) is the highly anticipated sequel to Disney’s live-action Aladdin (2019), bringing back the magic, music, and high-stakes adventure—only this time, the magic runs deeper, the stakes are global, and the lamp isn’t the only thing hiding secrets. With Mena Massoud returning as Aladdin and Naomi Scott as Jasmine, the story boldly expands the kingdom of Agrabah into a full-blown cinematic empire of wonder, war, and self-discovery.

Now ruling as prince consort alongside Queen Jasmine—who has become a reformist leader reshaping Agrabah’s future—Aladdin struggles with his past as a street rat and his new place in royal politics. But when a mysterious sorceress named Zahira (played by Sofia Boutella) emerges from the sands wielding a dark, ancient relic older than even Genie himself, the peace is shattered. She seeks to unlock the Realms Beyond—a forbidden dimension of magic that threatens to unravel the fabric of their world.

With Genie (Will Smith, back with even bigger flair) sensing a power far beyond his own, the trio embarks on a journey beyond Agrabah—through enchanted deserts, lost cities, and forgotten gods—to stop Zahira before the Realms merge and chaos reigns. But as Aladdin’s bond with Jasmine is tested, and his loyalty to Genie strained, he begins to question whether power should ever belong to anyone—no matter how noble.

Directed by Guy Ritchie, Aladdin (2025) balances visual grandeur with heartfelt themes: identity, legacy, and the true cost of change. With brand-new songs from Alan Menken and fresh choreography blending Eastern flair and modern spectacle, it’s a magic carpet ride into uncharted skies—and much darker clouds.

Because in this world, some wishes weren’t meant to be granted.
