The official trailer for the highly anticipated live-action remake of *Lilo & Stitch* has finally been released, offering fans an exciting glimpse into the world of this beloved Disney classic. The trailer showcases Maia Kealoha as Lilo, bringing her unique interpretation to the iconic role originally voiced by Daveigh Chase in the 2002 animated film. Kealoha's performance promises to capture the essence of Lilo, giving us a fresh yet familiar take on the character.
Alongside Lilo, the trailer introduces Courtney B. Vance as the stern yet caring Cobra Bubbles, and Billy Magnussen as the quirky Pleakley. While we've had glimpses of Stitch in previous teasers, this trailer also features Zach Galifianakis as Jumba, adding depth to the ensemble cast. An intriguing aspect revealed is Jumba and Pleakley's temporary human disguises, although Pleakley's alien form makes a brief appearance, staying true to the original's charm.
The trailer faithfully recreates several iconic scenes from the original movie, including Stitch's dramatic arrival resembling a falling star, his clever disguise as a dog at the shelter, and the heartwarming moment when Lilo shares the meaning of "Ohana": "Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten."
Mark your calendars for *Lilo & Stitch*'s theatrical release on May 23, 2025. This live-action adaptation follows closely on the heels of the live-action *Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs*, set to premiere on March 21, continuing Disney's trend of bringing cherished animated tales to life on the big screen.
