I know, I know, you’re getting tired of the “live action” adaptations of classic Disney animated films, but I gotta tell ya, this one feels like it might just be a hit. It’s hard to believe the original animated LILO & STITCH came out in 2002… yep, twenty-three years ago! The new version hits theaters this May, featuring an all-new cast barring one exception – they brought back Chris Sanders as the voice of Stitch. This comes from director Dean Fleischer Camp (MARCEL THE SHELLS WITH SHOES ON), and stars Hannah Waddingham, Tia Carrere, Zach Galifianakis, Billy Magnussen, Courtney B. Vance, Jason Scott Lee, Amy Hill, Sydney Agudong as Nani, and newcomer Maia Kealoha as Lilo. Check out the new full trailer for LILO & STITCH below and tell us your thoughts in the comments.
