Jafar is a fictional character, voiced by Jonathan Freeman, in the Disney film Aladdin and its sequel, The Return of Jafar. He is an evil sorcerer and the former Grand Vizier of the Sultan of Agrabah. Jafar is tall and thin, and almost always depicted in flowing robes of black, dark red and other moody colors. Jafar has a pet parrot named Iago, who switched sides in The Return of Jafar. Jafar carries a cobra-head staff, which he uses for his sorcery.

Him and the Genie work best together. One of the better exchanges involving them is listed below: Aladdin: The animals talk! Genie: You mean like Iago, or actual intelligent conversation?

Freed from a lifetime of confinement, Genie radiates energy and geniality. This character, inspired by its voice artist, Robin Williams, is one of Disney's all-time funnies...
