Jasmin from Aladdin colorpage

Jasmine is a fictional character from the Disney universe, first appearing in the animated film Aladdin (1992). She is the princess of Agrabah, the daughter of the Sultan, and the love interest of the main character, Aladdin. Jasmine is often recognized for her independent spirit, strong will, and desire for freedom from the constraints of royalty. She refuses arranged marriages and wants to marry someone for love, rather than for political reasons.

In the story, Jasmine feels trapped by the traditions and societal expectations surrounding her role as a princess. Her path crosses with Aladdin, a poor young man, and together they embark on an adventure that involves magic (thanks to the Genie) and self-discovery. Jasmine is also known for being one of the first Disney princesses to portray a more proactive and assertive character, fighting for her rights and choices.

Her portrayal has evolved in recent adaptations, particularly in the 2019 live-action Aladdin film, where Naomi Scott plays the role. This version further emphasizes her independence and her desire to become a capable leader.
