If you frequent Instagram, you've probably seen the "Which Disney character are you?" filter that pretty much everyone on the social media site has tried out. The filter, created by Instagram user Arno Partissimo, appears just like any other, but then randomly assigns you a Disney character, users can then share the video on their story or with their friends.

And while many celebrities have tried the filter out, Zelda Williams, daughter of late legendary actor Robin Williams, posted what may be the most wholesome attempt at the filter. 

Zelda originally shared the results on her X account (since deleted), in a video that shows the filter randomly landing on her father’s character from Aladdin, the Genie.
