MOVIE URBAN LEGEND<\/span><\/u>: Robin Williams vowed never to work for Disney again over a dispute over the size of the genie on the Aladdin<\/em> movie poster.<\/p>\n

Disney’s 1992 film, Aladdin<\/em>, was a massive blockbuster and a good deal of the success was likely attributable to actor Robin Williams’ inspired performance as the Genie in the film. However, as it turned out, while the film itself was magical, Williams’ experience with Walt Disney Pictures was much less so, to the point where he vowed to not work for Disney again after what he claimed were violations of some interesting conditions he placed upon him performing in the movie, including the size of his character on the posters for the film. <\/p>\n
