Aladdin Abu Disney Quilt Blanket Information

Aladdin Abu (Disney character)

Abu is a key character in Disney’s animated feature film Aladdin, which was released in 1992. He is Aladdin’s devoted partner-in-crime and a naughty, kleptomaniacal monkey.
Long before the events of the first film, Abu worked for a traveling circus of thieves, which included himself, a couple called Minos and Fatima, and Aziz, according to the episode “Seems Like Old Crimes” from the Aladdin television series. Abu was the group’s pickpocket, and after attempting to take Aladdin’s money, he encountered him. The two became buddies after going on an excursion together.
Aladdin’s friends in Howard Ashman’s original tale concept were a trio of human robbers (called Omar, Babkak, and Kassim) who, when coupled with Aladdin, formed a vaudevillian quartet. When the tale underwent extensive alterations, these characters were removed. There was an old guy dubbed “Blind Abu” in Linda Woolverton’s rendition of the narrative, named after a robber in the 1940 film The Thief of Bagdad. Woolverton’s script was more suited for live-action, according to John Musker and Ron Clements, who joined the Aladdin project as directors. It included too many people and lacked characters that could take use of the medium of animation. To fix the problem, Musker and Clements gave Aladdin a monkey companion dubbed “Abu” (after the figure from Woolverton’s script). Abu was designed to be a mix of realistic and anthropomorphic; he doesn’t talk in entire words, but he does sometimes utterly fragment syllables and show human emotions.
Unlike Aladdin, who steals to live, Abu is a gifted kleptomaniac with uncontrollable cravings to take whatever strikes his fancy, whether it’s gold, food, or anything else. This may get him into a lot of trouble, and it even seems to irritate Aladdin at times. In this sense, Abu may be rather greedy and selfish, since he always takes more than he needs. Nonetheless, the monkey has redeeming traits and a loving heart at its center. When he and Aladdin see two hungry youngsters, Abu is first disgusted by the thought of giving his food, but he rapidly changes his mind, swayed by Aladdin’s charity as well as his own morals.
