A brief history of Genie.
Genie is the all powerful energetic character in the Aladdin series of Disney films. Genie was trapped inside his bottle and rescued by Aladdin. Genie is the comic relief in the film creating all sorts of high energy sarcasm and humor, transforming into all sorts of characters, shapes and items. Genie is bound to allowing three wishes by his master. Genie assisted Aladdin in becoming a faux-prince to attempt to win over Princess Jasmine and later on followed as moral compass and assistance in Aladdin’s adventure.
Genie was granted freedom as Aladdin’s final wish. Genie made his first appearance in Aladdin released in 1992. He was created by Rodgers Allers and Ron Clements. He was voice by Robin Williams and Dan Catellaneta and has made videogame cameos as well as taken roles in other Disney series.
Voice actor Robin Williams had a contract dispute and had the role taken over by Dan Castellaneta in the Genie’s first appearance in Aladdin.
Tip: Genie’s shackles of imprisonment disappear when
he is granted freedom. However through a continuity error, Disney
continued to animate him with them on, despite the fact that he is free.
