© Annie Leibovitz / Disney Enterprises, Inc.International superstars (and husband and wife) Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony – portraying the royal heiress Princess Jasmine and the streetwise “diamond in the rough” Aladdin – are shown behind the scenes on the set of their photo shoot with famed photographer Annie Liebovitz.

In the completed image, the pair takes a magical ride amidst the stars above the Kingdom of Agrabah. The scene, made famous in Disney’s classic animated film, “Aladdin,” is reminiscent of the “Magic Carpets of Aladdin” attraction at the Magic Kingdom theme park in Florida and the “Disney’s Aladdin – A Musical Spectacular” show at Disney’s California Adventure theme park in California. The finished image is one of the new Leibovitz photographs unveiled to celebrate Disney Parks’ “Year of a Million Dreams.”

Since January 2007, Disneyland Resort in California and Walt Disney World Resort in Florida have commissioned Leibovitz to create images featuring international celebrities in fairy tale settings. Other Leibovitz images that Disney Parks has released feature tennis ace Roger Federer as King Arthur in “Sword in the Stone”; actress Julie Andrews portraying the Blue Fairy from Disney’s “Pinocchio” with her apprentice fairy, portrayed by starlet Abigail Breslin; actress Scarlett Johansson as Cinderella; singer/actress Beyonce as “Alice in Wonderland”; and soccer star David Beckham portraying Prince Phillip from Disney’s “Sleeping Beauty.”

Other new Leibovitz images just released by Disney Parks include comedienne Whoopi Goldberg as The Genie from “Aladdin”; supermodel Gisele Bündchen, dance legend Mikhail Baryshnikov and actress Tina Fey portraying a scene from Disney’s “Peter Pan”; and actress Jessica Biel portraying the brave Native American “Pocahontas,” from Disney’s 1995 animated film.
