Disney fans, get ready to reunite with one of your favorite ohanas! At the 2024 D23 Expo, Disney gave us an exciting sneak peek into the upcoming live-action adaptation of the beloved classic “Lilo & Stitch,” featuring an enchanting CGI rendition of Stitch. The movie is set to hit theaters in the summer of 2025.

Maia Kealoha will star as Lilo Pelekai, the spirited Hawaiian girl who befriends the mischievous alien Stitch. The original animated film, which debuted in 2002, won hearts with its heartwarming story of family and friendship. The live-action reboot promises to stay true to the spirit of the original while bringing a new dimension with stunning CGI effects.

Sydney Agudong steps into the role of Nani, Lilo’s caring older sister, while Chris Sanders returns to voice the lovable Stitch. Joining them are Zach Galifianakis as Dr. Jumba Jookiba, Stitch’s eccentric creator, and Billy Magnussen as Agent Pleakley, an agent from the United Galactic Federation. The cast also includes Courtney B. Vance as a social worker overseeing Lilo, Tia Carrere as Mrs. Kekoa, Amy Hill as Tūtū, and Jason Scott Lee reprising his role as David Kawena.

The film is helmed by Dean Fleischer Camp, the Oscar-nominated director of “Marcel the Shell With Shoes On,” with a screenplay penned by Chris Kekaniokalani Bright. The production team boasts heavyweights such as Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich of Rideback, with executive producers Ryan Halprin, Tom C. Peitzman, and Louie Provost.

Disney’s release calendar hints at a potential May 23rd release date, though this was not officially confirmed at D23. Fans are eagerly awaiting more details and trailers as the release date approaches.

Since its original release, “Lilo & Stitch” has expanded into a franchise with numerous sequels and a popular TV series. This live-action adaptation aims to capture the magic of the original film while introducing the story to a new generation.

As the release date approaches, more details and trailers are expected to be released. Keep checking Trevor Decker News for the latest updates on the “Lilo & Stitch” live-action remake.
