I got a little emotional this morning when I saw the new @disneystudios teaser trailer for the live action Mulan. It brought me back to China and years of research into the legend of Mulan, a woman who changed my life in all the best ways. If this trailer is any indication, I love the direction @nikicaro is taking this new Mulan. It is reminiscent of the animated original but it looks wholly unique. Not a remake but a re-vision of the strong female hero the world met over 20 years ago. Being a father of 3 strong and loving daughters, I am proud that Mulan could be their Disney “Princess”. The legend of Mulan is bigger than any one film and her strength and love for her family and country deserve to be told in many different ways. No songs? No Mushu? No Shang? Whatever! I just love seeing China’s favorite daughter alive in a story masterfully told. It looks like she will bring honor to us all...again. #disney#mulan#teasertrailer#animation

Did you see the new #mulan live action film trailer? Okay, let’s get this out of the way- it looks like there’s no #Mushu- and maybe even no #Shang. I miss my boy being in it, but I have to say- this movie looks great! @nikicaro , the director, looks like she shot an epic film with plenty of intimate moments and they have created a warrior #Mulan that goes farther than we did. I love that. My theory: We will see/hear an homage to Mushu somewhere. If so, I’ll be smiling in the theatre but still enjoying a powerful- and THANKFULLY DIFFERENT- take on the Legend of Fa Mulan! What did you think of the trailer? #disneymulan#disney
