Aladdin actor Mena Massoud has come under Twitter fire for some shady comments about The Little Mermaid’s box office performance. Massoud tweeted in a deleted post that Halle Bailey’s big film would definitely be getting a sequel but wouldn’t hit the “billion dollar mark” at the box office on May 13.

Massoud wrote

, “Our film was unique in that audiences went to watch it multiple times. It’s the only way we reached the billion-dollar mark with our opening. My guess is [The Little Mermaid] doesn’t cross the billion mark but will undoubtedly get a sequel.”

Massoud’s comments about Bailey’s film had fans of The

Little Mermaid responding, and they were clearly unhappy.

The Aladdin actor has since deleted his Twitter following all the backlash.
