The film is reportedly still in such of early stage that a script isn't even complete, but film writers, John Gatins and Andrea Berloff, are reportedly on board to pen the sequel.
The film will also reportedly be in theaters, rather than go straight to release on Disney's streaming service, Disney+. Other than this, not much else is known about the reported sequel.
The original 1992 animated film did inspire some direct-to-video sequels. In the 1994 film, Aladdin and the Return of Jafar, Aladdin's nemesis returns to shake things up in his life. In the 1996 film, Aladdin and the King of Thieves, Aladdin and Jasmine's wedding is ruined by a group of thieves and he goes to find his long lost father.
