Disney to turn Mulan into a live action movie

Disney is remaking Mulan as a live action film.

The 1998 animation is about a young Chinese woman who disguises herself as a man to take her father’s place on a battlefield.

It’s the latest film to get the live action treatment – Cinderella is currently top of the box office – and Dumbo, Beauty and the Beast and The Jungle Book are all in the works.

Cinderella is doing the rounds (and doing well) at the IMC in Carlow and Kilkenny at the moment starring Lily James and Cate Blanchett with Kenneth Branagh directing.
