This undated image released by Disney Theatrical Productions shows James Monroe Iglehart as the Genie during a production of the musical "Aladdin." As the fast-talking Genie in Disney Theatrical Group's latest Broadway extravaganza, Iglehart is taking a different tact than his hero Robin Williams did in the 1992 animated "Aladdin." Iglehart is channeling some smooth cool from bandleader Cab Calloway and ragtime entertainer Fats Waller. The creative team has urged him to make the role his own, and he has, adding things like a series of friendly fist-bumps between him and Aladdin. He's also learned to tap dance.
