Matt Busch Reveals Future Aladdin 3477

Promotional Campaign for the First ALADDIN 3477 Film Begins

Early buzz among pop culture fans as Star Wars Artist Matt
Busch unveils the Kickstarter 
for his epic sci-fi movie trilogy!

MACOMB TOWNSHIP, MI— After 13 years of ambitious work, Writer/Director Matt Busch is finally sharing a close look at his magnum opus, the Aladdin 3477 Motion Picture Trilogy with the release of an intense Kickstarter campaign. The live-action feature films are based on the classic Arabian Nights tale, set 1,500 years in the future throughout India and Asia. Unlike Disney’s version, this adventure looks like Star Wars, feels like Indiana Jones, and is vast in scope like Lord of the Rings. The first independent film, titled Aladdin 3477: The Jinn of Wisdom, stars Erik Steele, and is expected to be released this year.

Busch began his career in Hollywood illustrating storyboards and concept art for films like Con-Air and The Matrix. Simultaneously, he gained notoriety in the worlds of licensing and publishing, creating art for high profile properties like Lord of the RingsIndiana Jones, and Stranger Things. Busch is mostly known for the massive amount of art he’s provided for the Star Wars Universe. If you live on the planet Earth, you’ve likely seen his illustrations on books, posters, apparel, and more.

As grateful as Busch has been working for George Lucas, the dream has always been to create an epic sci-fi trilogy of his own. The Aladdin 3477 project began with Busch traveling the world, getting inspiration in countries like India and Hong Kong where the films would take place. Being a professional illustrator helped, as Busch created thousands of storyboards and concept designs to help share his vision with cast and crew. With the help of family, friends, and a few industry professionals, principle photography took 5 years, with an additional 4 to complete post production.

Effort has also been spent preparing for the promotion of the first Aladdin 3477 film, beginning with the release of a monumental Kickstarter campaign. Set to help funding for film festivals and markets, the crowdfunding campaign features unique rewards for backers, including books, posters, toys, and opportunities to see the film with Busch himself before anyone else. The campaign has taken off like wildfire, as it was fully funded in 8 hours, and double-funded in less than 3 days.

To keep the buzz going during the campaign, Busch has plans for exciting reward reveals, as well as contests and unveiling the movie trailer for the first film. Busch adds, “For me, I’m just so grateful I had the opportunity to create these films with family and friends. To see the positive response fans are already expressing about the campaign is through-the-roof amazing.” The Kickstarter campaign for Aladdin 3477 ends at midnight on March 3rd, 2023.
