The official trailer for the much-anticipated live-action remake of *Lilo & Stitch* has finally dropped, offering fans an exciting glimpse into the world of this beloved Disney classic. The trailer showcases Maia Kealoha's portrayal of Lilo, bringing the character originally voiced by Daveigh Chase in the 2002 animated film to life. Kealoha's performance promises to capture the essence of Lilo, giving audiences a fresh yet familiar take on the character.
Alongside Lilo, we get a closer look at Courtney B. Vance as the stern yet endearing Cobra Bubbles, and Billy Magnussen as the quirky Pleakley. The trailer teases an intriguing plot twist where Jumba, played by Zach Galifianakis, and Pleakley appear in human disguises on Earth before reverting to their alien forms, with Pleakley briefly shown in his extraterrestrial glory.
Fans will be delighted to see iconic scenes from the original animated movie recreated in live-action, including Stitch's dramatic entrance as a falling star, his transformation into a more dog-like appearance at the shelter, and the heartfelt moment when Lilo declares, "Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten."
*Lilo & Stitch* is set to hit theaters on May 23, 2025, following closely on the heels of another Disney live-action adaptation, *Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs*, which premieres on March 21, 2025. This latest remake continues Disney's trend of bringing animated classics to life in new and exciting ways.
