The official trailer for the live-action remake of *Lilo & Stitch* has been released, providing fans with an exciting glimpse into the film. Maia Kealoha takes center stage as Lilo, delivering a fresh take on the iconic character originally voiced by Daveigh Chase in the 2002 animated classic. Kealoha's portrayal promises to capture the essence of Lilo with a modern twist, showcasing her journey and emotional depth.

The trailer also features Courtney B. Vance as the serious yet endearing Cobra Bubbles, alongside Zach Galifianakis as Jumba and Billy Magnussen as Pleakley. An intriguing aspect highlighted in the trailer is that Jumba and Pleakley appear disguised as humans for part of the film, blending seamlessly into Earth's environment. However, fans can still catch a quick glimpse of Pleakley in his original alien form, adding a delightful nod to the source material.

Many iconic scenes from the original animated movie are brought to life in the trailer, including Stitch's dramatic entrance as a falling star, his transformation at the animal shelter to look more like a dog, and the heartfelt moment when Lilo declares, "Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten." These scenes are meticulously recreated, preserving the emotional impact and charm of the original while adapting them for a live-action format.

*Lilo & Stitch* is set to hit theaters on May 23, 2025, marking another entry in Disney's series of live-action remakes of beloved classics. This release follows closely on the heels of the live-action *Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs*, scheduled for March 21, 2025, promising a year filled with nostalgic cinematic experiences.
