‘Lilo & Stitch’ Trailer: Disney’s Live-Action Remake Brings the Crazy Blue Creature to the Real World

Disney fans are feeling unexpectedly hopeful about the upcoming live-action remake of Lilo & Stitch following the release of the official trailer yesterday.

The film, based on Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois’s beloved 2002 animated classic, will feature Maia Kealoha as Lilo and Sydney Agudong as her older sister Nani, with Chris Sanders returning to voice the mischievous Stitch. Directed by Dean Fleischer Camp, the remake also stars Courtney B. Vance as former CIA agent Cobra Bubbles and Billy Magnussen as Pleakley, an alien “Earth expert.”

The original Lilo & Stitch movie tells the heartwarming story of a lonely six-year-old girl who adopts what she believes to be a dog, only to discover it’s actually an escaped extraterrestrial experiment. The live-action trailer has sparked excitement among fans, as it appears to stay remarkably faithful to the animated version, with many praising how closely the remake mirrors the charm and spirit of the 2002 film.
“OMG, from the [Elvis Presley] music to the ice cream dropping on the floor, everything is perfect,” one fan gushed in the YouTube comments, nodding to the iconic scene in the original film where a side character always loses his ice cream cone at the beach.

“This is the first Disney live-action remake I’m genuinely excited about,” another fan added. “Stitch and the other alien characters look amazing, and it’s so nostalgic seeing all the classic scenes brought to life again.”
