Disney has shared a new batch of Lilo & Stitch posters for its highly-anticipated live-action remake of the iconic 2002 animated movie. The adaptation is scheduled to make its debut in theaters on May 23, 2025.
“The film is the wildly funny and touching story of a lonely Hawaiian girl and the fugitive alien who helps to mend her broken family,” reads the synopsis.
What classic Disney movies do the Lilo & Stitch posters parody?
The posters feature Stitch messing with signature items from four classic animated Disney movies, including 1992’s Aladdin, 1991’s Beauty and the Beast, 1950’s Cinderella, and 1937’s Snow White. These have also received live-action adaptations from the studio, with Rachel Zegler’s Snow White set to debut this Friday, March 21.
The live-action Lilo & Stitch movie is being directed by Oscar nominee Dean Fleischer Camp from a screenplay written by Chris Kekaniokalani Bright and Mike Van Waes. The ensemble cast includes Chris Sanders as the voice of Stitch, Zach Galifianakis as the voice of Dr. Jumba, Maia Kealoha as Lilo Pelekai, Billy Magnussen as the voice of Pleakley, Sydney Agudong as Nani, Kaipo Dudoit as David, Courtney B. Vance as Cobra Bubbles, Amy Hill as Tūtū, Tia Carrere as Mrs. Kekoa, and Jason Scott Lee. The adaptation is produced by Rideback’s Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich, with Tom Peitzman, Ryan Halprin, Louie Provost, and Thomas Schumacher serving as executive producers.
The original movie featured the voices of Daveigh Chase, Sanders, Carrere, David Ogden Stiers, Kevin McDonald, Rhames, Kevin Michael Richardson, and Lee. It was both a box office and critical success, with a worldwide gross of over $270 million. The beloved film also earned an Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature.
