New Poster For LILO & STITCH Spotlights Experiment 626

Disney has released a new poster for the live-action/CG animated film Lilo & Stitch and it puts the spotlight on Experiment 626. I imagine a trailer will be released for this movie pretty soon, maybe with the release of Moana 2?

In the film, “Lilo is a lonely Hawaiian girl who adopts a small ugly ‘dog,’ whom she names Stitch. Stitch would be the perfect pet if he weren’t in reality a genetic experiment who has escaped from an alien planet and crash-landed on Earth.

“Through her love, faith, and unwavering belief in ohana, the Hawaiian concept of family, Lilo helps unlock Stitch’s heart and gives him the ability to care for someone else.”

The cast includes newcomer Maia Kealoha, who is playing Lilo; Billy Magnussen as the one-eyed alien Pleakley,Sydney Elizabeth Agudong (NCIS) as Nani, Lilo’s older sister and legal guardian, the original voice of Nani, Tia Carrere, will be portraying a new character named Mrs. Kekoa, while actress Amy Hill, who played Mrs. Hasagawa in the animated movie and series, will play a new character named Tūtū.

Zach Galifianakis is also starring and confirmed to be playing Stitch’s scientist creator, Jumba.

Dean Fleischer Camp (Marcel the Shell With Shoes On) is directing the remake that will be a major release on Disney+. Chris Kekaniokalani Bright wrote the script for the adaptation.
