The eagerly awaited official trailer for the live-action remake of *Lilo & Stitch* has finally landed, offering fans an exciting glimpse into the world of this beloved Disney classic. The trailer showcases Maia Kealoha's portrayal of Lilo, a role originally brought to life by Daveigh Chase in the 2002 animated film. Kealoha steps into the spotlight, bringing her unique interpretation to the character that has captured hearts for over two decades.
Alongside Kealoha, we get a closer look at Courtney B. Vance's portrayal of the stern yet caring Cobra Bubbles, as well as Billy Magnussen's Pleakley. The trailer teases an intriguing twist where Jumba, played by Zach Galifianakis, and Pleakley appear disguised as humans, although Pleakley's alien form makes a brief appearance. This adds a fresh layer to the narrative, blending the familiar with the new.
The trailer also recreates several iconic scenes from the original film, including Stitch's dramatic arrival as a falling star, his clever disguise at the animal shelter, and the poignant moment where Lilo explains the meaning of "Ohana." These moments are brought to life with stunning visuals and heartfelt performances, staying true to the essence of the original while introducing a live-action flair.
*Lilo & Stitch* is set to hit theaters on May 23, 2025, following closely on the heels of the live-action *Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs*, which premieres on March 21. This release schedule promises a double dose of Disney nostalgia for fans eager to see their favorite animated stories reimagined in live-action.
