Late Gilbert Gottfried left behind secret 'Aladdin' outtakes, 200 hours of footage
“It’s almost 40 minutes into the movie when the Genie makes his first appearance,” Clements previously said. “It seemed like having another comedian really early on would help sort of set the tone. I think ‘Aladdin’ is really more of a comedy than most Disney movies … We thought Gilbert could bring some of that kind of humor earlier in the movie.”
Gottfried was able to improvise some of his lines during recordings, and many actually made it into the finished film. But the other material is gone with the wind and floating around somewhere in the Disney abyss. There is apparently unseen footage featuring Gilbert Gottfried in his role of the clever parrot Iago in Disney’s “Aladdin.”Gilbert Gottfried originated the role of Iago in the 1992 animated version of “Aladdin” as well as several spinoffs.“I think there were things locked away,” Clements chimed in. “There were things with Robin, too. In terms of recording sessions, they tend to be loose and freewheeling. I think Gilbert had a lot of fun doing it.
“He had a magic voice,” Galanis continued. “That voice worked so well on our medium. And he’d make faces. Every video is iconic. You want to share it.”
