New Live-Action Lilo & Stitch Video Hilariously Homages The Lion King

A new video for Disney’s upcoming live-action Lilo & Stitch remake has been released.

The animated version of Lilo & Stitch, which was written and directed by Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois, was released in 2002. It spawned a franchise that led to three direct-to-video sequels and a number of television series.

Disney is now making a live-action/CGI remake of Lilo & Stitch, which is directed by Dean Fleischer Camp. The film is scheduled to be released in May 2025.

The new Lilo & Stitch video is an homage to The Lion King, as it opens with footage of giraffes and zebras running through the African savanna. Rather than Simba being lifted up, however, it’s Stich, who is enjoying a chaotic day at the beach.

What do we know about the live-action Lilo & Stitch movie?

“A live-action reimagining of Disney’s 2002 animated classic, Lilo & Stitch is the wildly funny and touching story of a lonely Hawaiian girl and the fugitive alien who helps to mend her broken family,” the synopsis reads.

Sanders is returning to voice Stitch in the film, while the cast also includes Maia Kealoha as Lilo, Sydney Agudong as Nani, Billy Magnussen as the voice of Agent Pleakley, Zach Galifianakis as the voice of Dr. Jumba, Tia Carrere as Mrs. Kekoa, Courtney B. Vance as Cobra Bubbles, and Hannah Waddingham as the voice of the Grand Councilwoman.

Fleischer Camp’s previous filmography includes 2016’s Fraud and 2021’s Marcel the Shell with Shoes On. Jonathan Eirich and Dan Lin are producing the new Lilo & Stitch movie, while Louie Provost, Tom Peitzman, and Ryan Halprin serve as executive producers.

Lilo & Stitch will be released in United States theaters on May 23, 2025, from Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures.
