Live-Action Lilo, Cobra Bubbles, and Pleakley Revealed in New Lilo & Stitch Trailer

The long-awaited official trailer for the 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 Kealoha, the trailer introduces us to Courtney B. Vance as the stern yet caring Cobra Bubbles, and Billy Magnussen as the quirky Pleakley. Notably, the trailer teases an intriguing plot twist where Jumba, played by Zach Galifianakis, and Pleakley will temporarily disguise themselves as humans on Earth. However, fans will be delighted to catch a quick glimpse of Pleakley in his alien form, staying true to the original.

The trailer doesn't shy away from recreating iconic scenes from the original film, including Stitch's dramatic entrance as a falling star, his clever disguise at the shelter, and the heartwarming moment when Lilo utters the memorable line, "Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten." These scenes are beautifully translated into live-action, preserving the magic and emotion of the original.

Lilo & Stitch is set to hit theaters on May 23, 2025, adding to Disney's growing list of live-action remakes. This release follows closely on the heels of another anticipated remake, Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs, scheduled for March 21, 2025.
