Aladdin star Mena Massoud has appeared to shade the live-action remake of The Little Mermaid ahead of its release. Massoud played the title character in the 2019 reimagining of Aladdin, which grossed over $1 billion at the worldwide box office.
"Our film was unique in that audiences went to watch it multiple times," Massoud wrote on Twitter (H/T Yahoo!). "It's the only way we reached the billion-dollar mark with our opening. My guess is TLM doesn't cross the billion mark but will undoubtedly get a sequel." The actor has since deactivated his Twitter account.
