Article Summary
- Disney unveils a new poster for the live-action Lilo & Stitch.
- Stitch’s design closely mirrors the original animated character.
- Debuts as Disney’s Memorial Day release on May 23, 2025.
- Speculation surrounds the film’s potential box office performance.
To say that people were nervous about the live-action remake of Lilo & Stitch would be an understatement, but we finally got a good look at the character’s design this year, and he doesn’t look completely horrifying. Disney, much like Paramount, seems to have learned that changing the design too much will lead to the kind of fan rejection that will make your head spin. Then you have to force your VFX artists to redesign the entire character in the eleventh hour so you can avoid people spending your entire movie complaining about Sonic’s human teeth. So Stitch looks like the animated design, but it is a little more realistic and fuzzy. This character is iconic for a reason, so fixing what isn’t broken is likely the right way to go about doing this. We haven’t seen much else from the film just yet, but everyone is previewing their 2025 slates this week, and Disney released a new poster with a nice, close-up image of Stitch. This movie is Disney’s Memorial Day release, which is a notorious weird weekend at the movies — movies tend to even thrive or completely flop over that long holiday weekend; which camp do we think Lilo & Stitch will fall into?
