With the live action Mulan movie coming up, one might wonder if this means that the new version of Mushu, unlike Eddie Murphy’s iteration, will lead his own musical number.
So basically, it’d be best not to compare the live action Mulan adaptation too much to the animated movie when it comes out; they sound like two incredibly different beasts.
The only problem with that assumption is that so far, there’s no indication that Mushu will even be a character in this new adaptation.
Hell, while director Niki Caro has said that music will play an important role in the new Mulan movie, we don’t even know if this version will be a musical.
