We're only a few weeks away from the release of the eagerly awaited live-action remake of Aladdin starring Will Smith and Mena Massoud, and now Zayn Malik has delighted fans by dropping his version of 'A Whole New World' with American singer Zhavia Ward.

The former One Direction singer dropped a short clip of the song to his socials, while Disney Music uploaded the full music video to YouTube. The iconic song from the popular Disney classic will feature over the end credits of the film, which is due out on the 24th May.

Since ZAYN's post, fans have been quick to compliment him on the song saying, 'YOU VOICE IS EVERYTHING TO ME THANK YOU FOR MY LIFE #AWholeNewWorld' sic. With another fan suggesting the 'Dusk Till Dawn' singer should have been cast as the main part in the film, 'disney realised they made a mistake when they didnt cast you for Aladdin himself so they made a brilliant decision to have you on the soundtrack JUST SAYING 😌'. sic

The full music video sees ZAYN wearing a suit, walking down a tree-lined road in the dark, as Zhavia looks on from a rooftop, however as the video continues, the pair never share a scene together.
