Disney's Aladdin remake is reportedly moving forward on its sequel and writers John Gatins and Andrea Berloff have been hired to write the script. In August, one of the Aladdin remake's producers said that Disney was looking into a sequel. Now, Variety reported that these producers had spent the past six months trying to work out the sequel's story and have supposedly settled on a new idea instead of simply adapting the original animated movie's sequels. The producers are also hoping that actors Will Smith, Mena Massoud and Naomi Scott will return, but there won't be any deals made until a script is completed.
