Once Upon a Time : Aladdin Actor

I really wish they had gotten Avan Jogia to play Aladdin, I've always thought he'd be perfect. I would've loved to see that.

too late now.

It wouldn't have worked with Karen David as Jasmine she is young and gorgeous but she is clearly an adult compared to Avan who could still pass for a teenager the dynamic would have been weird. Plus I have a sneaking feeling Disney may want him for the live action version they're doing with Guy Ritchie. He's got to be on the list of contenders if not top of the list he looks so much like the character.

Wow!! He looks like a good fit but is he a decent actor?
There's nothing to worry. You're going to be just fine. I'll take care of you. I'm your #1 fan.

He's very good he just did a miniseries about Tutankamen where he played the lead and he was very good in that. He's very likeable and he has that charm to him that I think Aladdin needs.

He's also a triple threat. He can act sing and dance.

Deniz and Karen are 11 years apart, but dont look it

Avan is 2 years younger than Deniz
