The success of the original 1992 American animated feature, Aladdin, directed by Ron Clements and John Musker, led to two direct-to-video sequels, a television show (which is bookended by the sequels and had a crossover episode with Hercules: The Animated Series), a segment in Disney Princess Enchanted Tales: Follow Your Dreams, a one-act, seven-scene theatre musical, a musical show at Disney California Adventure a Broadway musical, a ride in Magic Kingdom, a themed land at Tokyo DisneySea, a walkthrough attraction at Disneyland Paris, a bazaar at the main entrance to Adventureland in Disneyland Paris, several video games, and merchandise. A live-action remake of the original film was released in 2019, directed by Guy Ritchie.
The franchise follows Aladdin, a good-natured "street rat" from the fictional Middle Eastern kingdom of Agrabah who falls in love with the rebellious Princess Jasmine. With the help of a wise-cracking Genie, he wins her heart, and they (through the sequel material) go on many adventures, developing their relationship over time, eventually marrying in the final animated film.
