The eagerly anticipated official trailer for the live-action remake of *Lilo & Stitch* has finally dropped, giving fans an exciting glimpse into the world of this beloved Disney classic. The trailer showcases Maia Kealoha's portrayal of Lilo, originally brought to life by Daveigh Chase in the 2002 animated film. Kealoha steps into the spotlight, captivating audiences with her performance of the endearing young girl.
While previous teasers have highlighted Stitch, this trailer shifts the focus to Lilo, promising a fresh take on the character. We also get a closer look at Courtney B. Vance as the serious yet lovable Cobra Bubbles, alongside Zach Galifianakis as Jumba and Billy Magnussen as Pleakley. An intriguing plot twist reveals Jumba and Pleakley disguised as humans on Earth, though we catch a brief glimpse of Pleakley in his alien form.
The trailer faithfully recreates iconic scenes from the original, such as Stitch's dramatic arrival as a falling star, his attempt to blend in at the shelter by looking more like a dog, and the heartwarming moment when Lilo utters the famous line, "Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten."
Set to hit theaters on May 23, 2025, *Lilo & Stitch* joins the ranks of Disney's beloved live-action remakes, arriving shortly after the live-action version of *Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs* on March 21.
