Mulan

Something big (er... small) is missing from the trailer.

Yifei Liu plays one of the most beloved Disney heroines of all time in the new live-action remake.

Disney’s live-action ‘Mulan’ remake is rounding out its cast with two major Chinese actors, Jet Li and Gong Li.

The ‘Ip Man’ and ‘Rogue One’ actor will play a new character in Disney’s ‘Mulan.’

The studio has delayed the release of the live-action remake by two whole years.

Earlier this year, we spoke with director Niki Caro about her upcoming reimagining of Mulan, one of many live-action remakes in the works at Disney. In light of the white-washing controversies surrounding films like Ghost in the Shell and Death Note, there has been some understandable concern among fans regarding Disney’s remake of their animated classic. But as Caro promised, the studio is committed to casting Chinese actors in the live-action update, and they’ve made good on their word (thus far) today by enlisting actress Liu Yifei (aka Crystal Liu) in the title role.

Rick and Morty may have declared its entire series a quest for McDonald’s old Mulan McNugget sauce, but even Rick would probably draw a line here. An old packet of the Szechuan dipping sauce retailed for an ungodly sum on eBay, making Rick’s quest that much harder.

Director Niki Caro was mysterious as the dark side of the moon about whether or not Disney’s new live-action Mulan movie was going to feature some of the classic songs from the original cartoon. At first, it seemed like there were no musical numbers planned for the movie, but, after some reflection, Caro has revealed that yes, not to worry, the new movie will have music.

Last week, the Internet entered into something of a panic when it was announced that Niki Caro, the director of the live-action Mulan remake, didn’t have any songs planned for the movie. For those of you who were bereft at the thought of no “I’ll Make a Man Out of You” army training/dance number, don’t freak out yet. While there aren’t any songs in the script right now, that doesn’t mean there won’t be any at all.
