The magic gold lamp from Disney's "Aladdin" has magically appeared, courtesy of star Will Smith.

Smith is the Genie, after all, in the live-action film directed by Guy Ritchie.

"The Fresh Prince" star, who has still not been revealed as the Genie, teased that his magical character was stuck inside the gold lamp when he showed the poster on his Facebook page Wednesday.

"LEMME OUT!! :-)," Smith wrote. "Can’t wait for y’all to see Me BLUE!

"Choose wisely," are the key words on the poster, as the owner of the lamp has three wishes.

"Power Rangers" star Naomi Scott (she played the Pink Ranger in the 2017 film) has the coveted role of Princess Jasmine.

Mena Massoud, star of Amazon's "Jack Ryan" TV series, will star as the film's title character, Aladdin.

Smith has big shoes to fill playing the part made famous by Robin Williams in 1992's animated classic "Aladdin."

Last September, Smith posted a photo of himself with his cast members on the set. He promised he was "gettin my Genie on."

The live-action version hits theaters May 24, 2019.
