Editors' Picks: Our Favorite Things From the Week of August 121 of 7
First Look of the Week
This week, Disney shared a first look at Mulan, the live-action adaptation of its 1998 animated film. The image shows Yifei Liu, Chinese star of The Forbidden Kingdom, who was cast as Hua Mulan following a yearlong global search. As with the animated movie, the adventure centers on a fearless young woman in ancient China who masquerades as a man to fight attacking invaders. The only downside is that it's unlikely to feature all the songs we loved from the original ... and we have to wait until March 27, 2020, before it's released.
