Stitch is back, causing chaos in the Disney universe, and this time, it’s all live-action
Disney has shared a new teaser for the live-action adaptation of Lilo & Stitch, and the little blue alien is back causing destruction.
In the 30-second preview, viewers are green with a shot of a Disney-like sand castle with the backdrop of a beautiful blue ocean. However, the beautiful shot is destroyed when Stitch comes stomping and smashing the castle away.
Newcomer Maia Kealoha plays Lilo in the live-action version of the Hawaii-set 2002 animated pic. The new take was originally developed for Disney+ before shifting to a theatrical release. The cast also includes Zach Galifianakis and Billy Magnussen.
Dean Fleischer Camp directs the film, which follows the relationship between a lonely girl named Lilo and Stitch, an alien engineered to be a force of destruction.
Chris Kekaniokalani Bright wrote the script from a previous draft by Mike Van Waes. Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich produce for Rideback, with Ryan Halprin exec producing for the company.
Lilo & Stitch will open on May 23, 2025.
Watch the teaser for the live-action film in the video above.
