Mulan disguises herself as a man, and is accompanied by a dragon named Mushu (voiced by Eddie Murphy), whom the ancestors send as Mulan’s protector.
Released back in 1998, the animated Mulan was directed by Tony Bancroft and Barry Book, and was based on a story by Robert D. San Souci.
Mulan was a brave young girl who volunteered for military service to spare her father — a veteran who happened to be the last male in their family during a time of combat.
