Disney Is "Struggling" to Find an Actor to Play Aladdin — Here Are 11 Reasons That's Bullsh*t

Dev Patel has been charming us since 2008, when his breakout role as Jamal in Slumdog Millionaire earned him not only buzz, but an eternal place in our hearts. Since then, he's racked up tons of great roles in movies like the Oscar-nominated Lion, The Man Who Knew Infinity, Chappie, and The Road Within (but can we all just agree The Last Airbender never happened?). We're not sure how extensive his vocal talents are (to be fair, Emma Watson's are just average in Beauty and the Beast), but we'd be totally down with him taking a trip to Agrabah.
