Genie (Disney)

Uncommon card · No. 118824

The Genie is a fictional character who appeared in Walt Disney Pictures' animated film Aladdin (1992), later appearing in other media of the Aladdin franchise as one of its main characters, as well as throughout other Disney media; he was based on popular culture depictions of genies or djinns (in particular One Thousand and One Nights). He was voiced by Robin Williams in the first film, on whom the character's mannerisms were based. Following a contract dispute between Williams and Disney, Dan Castellaneta voiced the Genie in the direct-to-video feature The Return of Jafar, as well as the television series. Williams reprised the role for the final film installment Aladdin and the King of Thieves, and the character's own educational mini-series Great Minds Think for Themselves. Dan Castellaneta voiced the Genie in Aladdin in Nasira's Revenge and later the Kingdom Hearts series for both Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II (with archived audio used in other Kingdom Hearts games).
