The Disney live-action remake machine will next turn its attention to Lilo & Stitch, the 2002 feature that was one of the company’s final 2D animated theatrical releases.
The most recent Disney live-action remake, Mulan, was expected to premiere in theaters but wound up debuting on the streaming service anyway, so at this point the distinction may be academic.
The report does not indicate whether this Lilo & Stitch remake is intended for Disney+ or for theaters.
The original film was written and directed by Dean DeBlois and Chris Sanders, who later found acclaim with How to Train Your Dragon.
