The “Lilo & Stitch” ohana is expanding, with Jon M. Chu in talks to direct Disney’s upcoming live-action adaptation.

Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich of Rideback, the company that recently backed Disney’s “Aladdin” remake, are producing the film, with Rideback exec Ryan Halprin serving as an executive producer.

Chu is best known for directing 2018’s box office smash “Crazy Rich Asians,” the first Hollywood movie in 25 years to feature a predominately Asian and Asian American cast. He also directed “In the Heights,” the big-screen version of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s hit musical that’s expected to debut in 2021. Before embarking on the Hawaiian-set “Lilo & Stitch,” Chu is working with Disney on the “Willow” TV series for Disney Plus.

Crazy Rich Asians is such a bad directed movie though :air:. Also, I’m not ready to see stitch in any other ways but animation :air:. Not excited at all.

Can the trend of rebooting movies with "live action" just go away? Bring back original creative ideas...

Knowing Disney, if they even attempt to do a live action Pocahontas, they’ll hire a white passing Native American nnn

Stop ruining the classics, invent something new :saladga:

why create something new and good when you can take something old, strip it of everything that made it good, throw a few million at it, and market it to children who don’t know better?

making live action versions of non-human characters really strips the charm and fun out of it. 

ex. animals in the LK remake last year were so lifelike it was just Planet Earth with beyonce.
