You're right. Who is Aladdin anyways? Is he Arab? Desi? Aladdin (the movie) is orientalist in that it paints SWANA (Southwest Asia and North Africa -AKA Middle East, Near East, Arab World, Persia) as monolithic. But, you know, we're talking about Hollywood. : / 

ugh so true... :(

Why are they casting East Asian men for an Arab role? Isn't Aladdin supposed to be Arab? There are tons of Arab male actors that could do the role justice. 

If anything Disney is only perpetuating the stereotype of east asian and arab men being the same thing when they are not. :rip: 

With that SJW rant being said though Iwould die if Avan Jogia played Aladdin :flutter: 

Huh? The article stated they are looking for Middle-Eastern (aka West-Asian, aka Arab) actors. :duck:

I know but they are also looking for East Asian / Indian men to play the part. My comment was in regards to that. They do not need to look for east asian men to play the part because Aladdin was meant to be an Arab character. :duck:

Worst part about this project tbh. Aladdin is one my favorite movies and Guy is a TERRIBLE director. Ugh.

I think you might have mixed up somethingh, the East Asian casting call they have put up is for the live action version of Mulan, not Aladdin. :chica:
