Check it out, geeks!
We just got a first peek what what Mulan will look like in the MULAN live-action adaptation! Snagged from People!
Liu Yifei is looking simply elegant, but FIERY, in that red robe. Attention to detail, I suppose we will find out what that sweet looking sword says in the movie! Or does anyone here know Chinese that wants to translate?
Liu Yifei stars as Mulan. As for the rest of the cast we have Jason Scott Lee (THE BRUCE LEE STORY) as the villainous Bori Khan, a warrior leader who is intent on avenging his father's death. He will act alongside Li Gong (whose character so far is unnamed) as antagonists. We have Donnie Yen as Commander Tung, and Jet Li as The Emperor!
There will more than likely not be a Mushu in this version, but just for shits and giggles: let’s speculate who would play voice that role today? Who is on par with Eddie Murphy of 1998? Patton Oswalt? Justin Roiland? “Ya gotta shove that sword WAAAAAY up your butt, Mulan-y.”
We’ll get to see the bajillionth live-action Disney Princess movie March 27, 2020.
