Disney is giving movie goers their first look at the new live-action version of the much anticipated Mulan.
After auditioning 1000's of actresses, the makers of the film finally decided on Liu Yifei to portray lead heroine Hua Mulan. From the photo released this week it's no surprise why. Yifei looks like she is ready to kick someserious butt. The rest of the cast includes Jet Li, Donnie Yen, Utkarsh Ambudkar, Yoson An and Jason Scott Lee.
Disney released a statement saying about the film:
The eldest daughter of an honored warrior, Hua Mulan is spirited, determined and quick on her feet. When the Emperor issues a decree that one man per family must serve in the Imperial Army, she steps in to take the place of her ailing father as Hua Jun, becoming one of China's greatest warriors ever.
Production has begun on Disney’s live-action #Mulan! The film will open in U.S. theaters on March 27, 2020. https://t.co/g8CiYoLHjZ— Walt Disney Studios (@Walt Disney Studios)1534177803.0
