Aladdin star Mena Massoud deleted his after sparking the ire of The fans on Saturday.
The actor, 31, got in hot water after suggesting that the upcoming live-action adaptation of The Little Mermaid, , 23, will not 'cross the billion mark' but will 'undoubtedly' get a sequel.
Massoud — who starred as Aladdin in the 2019 live-action adaptation alongside — was responding to an account that speculated on how much TLM was going to make opening weekend, projecting it to be around $115M in comparison to Aladdin's $112M.
'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 TLM doesn't cross the billion mark but will undoubtedly get a sequel,' he wrote.
The Egyptian-Canadian actor received backlash for the remark, causing him to scrub his entire Twitter account.

Shady?

The actor, 31, suggested that the upcoming live-action adaptation of TLM, starring Halle Bailey, 23 (pictured) will not 'cross the billion mark' but will 'undoubtedly' get a sequel
The original comment is now gone and his page is inaccessible with a 'This account doesn't exist' sign.
Many felt that Mena's comment was a dig suggesting the Little Mermaid wasn't worth a possible sequel. 
Some also pointed out that Mena's comment might have to do with the fact that an Aladdin sequel never panned out, despite its impressive opening numbers. 
Others believe the actor is upset about the course of his own career following a mixed reception to Aladdin.
In 2019, saying 'It's not always dandelions and roses.' 
Mena, who reportedly beat over 2000 other men for the part, said there were many misconceptions about his supposed post-Aladdin success.
'"He must have made millions. He must be getting all these offers," he paraphrased, 'It's none of those things.

I haven't had a single audition since Aladdin came out.'
'It's like, I'm sitting here being like, okay, Aladdin just hit $1 billion — can I at least get an audition? Like I'm not expecting you to be like, "Here's Batman." But can I just get in the room?
… Can you just give me a chance?' he said.
Sour grapes?

Fans were quick to point out why the actor might have made a jab at the Little Mermaid, with one writing, 'Your film reached a billion but you're still jobless… seems like you got other things to worry about.' 
Others wrote in defense of Bailey, with one commentator stating: 'Halle Bailey is a true star & 'The Little Mermaid' is about to eclipse everything.'
Another part of the fierce response might be that fans are feeling protective of the film, after sporadic online backlash cropped up in response to a black woman's casting in a role that was previously assumed to be for a white woman.
The actress and singer was cast as Ariel in Disney's live action Little Mermaid in 2019.
Halle previously shared that she was shocked to see the slew of hateful comments over her casting. 
'Seeing the world's reaction to it was definitely a shock,' Bailey told Edition magazine. 
However there were also many who were pleased with the casting choice, including the original voice of Ariel, Jodi Benson.
Benson publicly applauded Disney for casting the black singer in the live-action version of the story, saying that the 'most important thing is to tell the story.'
Coming soon: Actress and singer Halle Bailey was cast as Ariel in Disney's live action Little Mermaid in 2019.

'We need to be storytellers.

And no matter what we look like on the outside, no matter our race, our nation, the color of our skin, our dialect, whether I'm tall or thin, whether I'm overweight or underweight, or my hair is whatever color, we really need to tell the story,' she said.
Last month it was revealed that iconic songs from The Little Mermaid — which also stars Melissa McCarthy as sea witch Ursula and Javier Bardem as King Triton — soundtrack have had their lyrics changed to reflect consent in the film.
Classic tracks such as Kiss The Girl and Poor Unfortunate Souls will feature different lyrics.
Composer Alan Menken told : 'There are some lyric changes in Kiss the Girl because people have gotten very sensitive about the idea that [Prince Eric] would, in any way, force himself on [Ariel].
Based on the 1989 Disney animated classic, which in turn is adapted from Hans Christian Andersen, the new picture is due out May 26.
