Supervising animator Eric Goldberg told GMA that Williams was just as dynamic as the character he voiced. “Aside from him being funny as anything, he was such a warm person," he recalled of the Flubber star.

Oscar-winning composer Alan Menken, who penned the movie's hit, "A Whole New World," equally enjoyed spending time with the late comic. "It was amazing working with Robin, absolutely incredible," he said on Friday.

"He was the Genie," added Aladdin's co-director and screenplay writer John Musker. "He was bigger than life."

Musker's fellow co-director and writer Ron Clements also remembered Williams' talent and passion for his job. "Nobody else could be the Genie. We recorded him in four-hour sessions and he would be going for four hours straight," he gushed. "By the end, he was just drenched in sweat. He had so much energy and so much passion."
