In the midst of all the Disney live-action remakes like Aladdin, Dumbo, Mulan, and The Lion King, it seems Lilo and her cute and fluffy pal aren’t getting left behind. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Disney is working on a Lilo & Stitch live-action movie. While Disney has yet to confirm the news, it’s certainly gotten fans on Twitter talking and it’s safe to say they have a lot of feelings about this Lilo & Stitch remake. (Bustle has reached out to Disney for comment and confirmation, but has not yet received a response.)
THR reported that the new Lilo & Stitch would be a live-action/CGI hybrid, not unlike the upcoming live-action version of The Lion King, which features Beyoncé’s voice as Nala. For now, there’s no word on who will play Lilo or Stitch, but up and coming writer Mike Van Waes was hired to pen the script. It’s also unclear whether the Lilo & Stitch live-action remake will be released in theaters or will end up on Disney’s upcoming streaming service which is set to launch next year.
All of that uncertainty might be why some fans aren’t sure how to feel about the news of another Lilo & Stitch movie. It might be why so many voiced their concerns. "Lilo and Stitch is a perfect movie," a Twitter user named @SenorWoberto wrote. "There is, functionally, no way to improve it further, with its heartfelt characters and beautiful art. But it’ll still make tons of money because nostalgia sells.
