Tunisian-Dutch actor Marwan Kenzari has folks rooting for the bad guy.

Kenzari is not quite a household name. Yet.

He previously appeared in the Ben-Hur remake, the Tome Cruise film The Mummy and the star-studded Murder on the Orient Express.

Is it getting hot in here?

We may need a minute to collect ourselves.




Aladdin who?






Sorry Aladdin, better luck next remake.
